Pieces of Love

To be found in many places and people,
if we but let ourselves see.
It is offered
in a gesture
or a hug
or a kiss.
A kind act that does not go unnoticed,
if we but take the time.
Not to grasp after the whole thing in one bite,
but the small seemingly insignificant items of daily life.
To recognize,
to acknowledge,
to reciprocate,
That brings the pieces from many people into a whole that is greater than one,
And then,
and then
that is when it grows!
