It’s time again for another extra special treat! Enjoy this piece from a very special guest writer who is kinda close to my heart.
Riches
A cup of coffee that tastes just right
A baby’s cuddle in the night
A much needed encouraging word from a friend
A job seen through from beginning to end
The welcome smell of fresh baked bread
That book I’ve put off reading’s now read
Knowing all the words to the song
Checking off a task that took so long
The happy sound of children at play
A pink sunset at the end of the day
A campfire with marshmallows to roast
Butter and salt on my toast
Learning to do something entirely new
Ice cream with toppings-just a few
When a freshly lit candle’s smell reaches my nose
When the throw blanket covers all the way to my toes
Evening grass under my bare feet
Great conversations after we eat
The sound of believers singing worship together
A long hug from the one I vowed to stay with forever
One who savors God’s simple gifts
And to Him humble praise she lifts
Is one who has a mindset switch
And finds that she is truly rich


Beautiful poem! Loved reading it.
