Poem: Seven Reasons

Seven Reasons

©Aislynn d’Merricksson, 2015

 

There are seven reasons why

that which has no price

is the most valuable of all.

 

Reason One- Serenity

What price can be named

for a gold-gilt sunrise waking the land?

 

Reason Two- Comfort

What price can label

a baby’s coo, a mother’s love?

 

Reason Three- Awen

What price to emblazon upon

the divine spark of inspiration?

 

Reason Four- Hope

What price to call

the birth of a child, future’s security?

 

Reason Five- Contentment

What price to put

on the purr of a cat, warm in your lap?

 

Reason Six- Hospitality

What price to hang upon

hearthfire stories and a full belly?

 

Reason Seven- Gratitude

What price to demand for

a stranger’s help, unasked, unbidden

 

Seven reasons and many more,

why all that which has no price

are the most valuable things of all.
