When Scant Suffices

glut and excess entices gluttony and greed going beyond enough, beyond the ample sufficiency is to become stuffed stupid, bloated to distended, chubby fat when scant suffices our needs are few, we savor every morsel and crumb we cherish simplicity the joy of each moment ticked the joy of the doing, not the done we cherish every tiny loving touch, brush and blush, every heartfelt phrase, every wink or two eye glints we relish every smile as kiss every eye-to-eye contact an embrace When scant suffices staying hungry keeps the thirst for more fresh there's such elegance in simplicity such grace in humility's embrace When scant suffices there's sufficiency of self leaving the cup half-full, frugal for a little more to come, besides.
