Valuable
What's the price of a cup of tea?
Or a coffee that's supplied to me?
Plus a cookie plain or rare,
Also the time to chat and share.
It matters not the subject or time,
Even a glass of sparkling red wine,
Able to relax to listen or talk,
Better by far than a brisk evening walk.
In a chair or lying on the floor,
A perfect togetherness that encourages more,
Young or old each has a place,
Cramped or spacious there's pleasure to trace.
Yes small things are priceless to hold,
You can't ignore they're pure gold,
Love and happiness available by choice,
Delightful to listen to another persons voice.
Details about this poem;-
Simply put this poem was written to record
the value of friendship and a cuppa,we
don't often consider its value.
