LIFE'S LITTLE JOYS

lasergraph

 

(c) 2018 Edward York

 

Life can be so exciting,

When everything you do is so new.

There can be joy in the things that are normal,

And in the simplest things that you do.

 

The best things don't always cost money,

And that you always have known.

Sometimes all you need, is one special treat,

That's frozen and stuffed in a cone.

 

 An afternoon in the park can work wonders,

A picnic can always make your day.

There is nothing like moments with nana,

And just a few minutes to play.

 

Memories don't come from big presents,

No headway from nickel or dime.

The most lasting thing that can be given,

Is just a little of your time.

            It’s those little moments
            that enrich our lives
            and are treasured the most!
            A fine write, Laser!

            This is so true, the best present that you can give anybody is time and that is priceless.
