English Poetry: Treasures

composition of ceramic jar with word treasures on dining table

A room full of ornaments appeal
million bucks to watch over
destinies seal
parasites hover.

For some, it’s the memories
priceless possessions ah that warmth
frozen in time with histories
close to heart since birth.

Value doubles of antiques and valuables
years roll but photographs still sizzle
such masterpieces are adorable
like sweet rain in minds moments drizzle.

Wealth in the form of children and elders multiplies
their presence in lives color worlds
genuine people in bulk supplies
give a picture of a dreamworld.

Good health is beyond a price
love and friends as inestimable gems
then meaningful silences are worth the sacrifice
pure luck if placed by God as beautiful poems.

Strangers who help on the way
are unexpected milestones
who make our day
treasures like these are the backbone.
