One minute makes a difference
When running for the train.
One car will change your day
If you’re in a crowded lane.
One sentence works a wonder,
If it’s needed to be heard.
One deed brings a person light,
As does one kindly word.
One meal is often missed,
One crime means doing time,
One shoe is always searched for,
As is, at times, one dime.
But the greatest One of all,
Be it parent, teacher, friend,
Is the one with you when you’re down;
Beside you to the end.
