The Creed

The Creed

Do we really appreciate 
what we've got

Or is it more 
like dwelling on 
that, elusive,
" have not"

 Thinking 
things would be better
if we just had
 "it"

But desires of 
possessions are 
a bottomless pit

That make us 
obsessive and
filled with worry 

Impulsive, frustrated, frazzled, in 
 a hurry

Even empty
 at times

As the yearning
fills our mind

But happiness
can not be
possessed

With or without
"things" we are
not less

We have all 
we'll ever need

If we just make 
"thankfulness"
our creed

 For no one else can create
our joy

and we damn sure
don't need any
more toys

To give our spirits
that wonderful
lift

That comes from just being
grateful that life is 
a gift
