One

For a flawless pearl to be formed
It takes but a grain of sand;
A whole new tree springs from
A seed dropped in a forgotten land.
It takes but a tiny spark
For a blazing fire to start,
And just a gentle gesture
Can touch somebody's heart.
It takes just a caring thought
To go that extra mile;
It takes but one word
To make somebody smile.
And just a single lie
Faith forever shaken;
Just a single person
For a generation to awaken.
