A narrow window may let in the light, A tiny star dispel the gloom of night, A little deed a mighty wrong set right. A rose, abloom, may make a desert fair; A single cloud may darken all the air; A spark may kindle ruin and despair. A smile and there may be an end to strife; A look of love, and Hate may sheathe the knife; A word—ah, it may be a word of life! |
