Small Acts and Great Impact
Small acts that cost us nearly nothing,
Yet warm the world like early spring.
A gentle word, a humble deed,
Small actions plant the biggest seed.
For in our hands, both great and slight,
Lie choices shaping day and night.
A single act, though soft or small,
Can lift a life—or let it fall.
But shadows rise where kindness ends;
Some deeds can break what never mends.
A thoughtless move, a careless choice
Can still a hopeful, striving voice.
Do leaders pause to truly see
The weight of their authority?
Each choice they make, each path they chart,
Resounds in every beating heart.
For those at grassroots—every day—
Are human too, in every way.
Remember this, for it is true:
No rulers stand without the ruled.
