When Size Doesn’t Matter…Little But Mighty

The hummingbird beats its wings, tiny and fast,
yet it outshines eagles soaring vast.
The bonsai tree stands small and precise,
its beauty is not measured by its size.

The ant can lift ten times its weight,
the flea can jump to heights so great.
A pocket watch keeps perfect time,
though smaller than a sundial by its design.

Even the shortest candle shines so bright,
lighting the dark with steady light.
So don’t fret that you didn’t stretch as long,
perfection comes in forms both big and strong.
