Greg Gaul Poet Free verse

Things That May Matter

Houses, are an anchor
Clothes, will wear threadbare
Jewels, they glow for fools
Trinkets, tricks spun in clay
Trophies, ties to the past
Food, tickles the tongue
Humor, flickers then fades
Art, always apart
Music, notes float in air
Memory, thrives in my mist
Friends, they disappear
Change, nectar so sweet
Love, flight of the dove
Wife, partner in life
Family, the one that lasts
