Treasure

In this fast paced world of ours I still enjoy lifes simple pleasures It’s the uncomplicated joys That I truly value and treasure I treasure the joy of nature Simplistic, raw, complete The joy of family and friends Loves connections pure and sweet I treasure the joy of a beloved pet A four legged member of the family The unconditional love they possess Has no end in it’s entirety I treasure the joy of home Shelter safe and secure Precious blessings and comforts inside Where happiness is assured I treasure the joy of freedom Fortunate to safely roam In a country that I love A country I call home I treasure human Kindness One of give and share Of unselfishness and acceptance Mankind simply being aware No desire for material riches Or the need to be entertained I treasure lives special moments Where lasting memories remain I treasure affection and humour Laughter is a true pleasure In this fast paced world of ours I’m so blessed with glorious treasures!

You are a "treasure" Deb. This poem goes on my FAV's list my friend. These are the treasures we need to remind ourselves of when we are challenged and frustrated with the world we live in. Thanks for the comforting and encouraging poetry. :-) Hugs, Bill

They are the natural treasures in life, Many in this world would like just a few of them. Possessions sometimes don't make for a happy life; they become an encumbrance. Take care. Shirley X
