Little Things a Loved One Did

The little things a loved one did

That irritated when they were near

Would no longer cause frustration

If today they were here

 

Some small thing they used to do

Some word they used to say

No longer would cause us anger

Now that they are gone away

 

Some small annoying habit

That would cause us to dispair

We now would gladly endure

If only they were here

 

So many unimportant habits that troubled us

That didn’t really mean that much

O how gladly we would take them back

To once more feel their touch
