[hometext] => What is more important to you?
[bodytext] => What is the thing? That you value the most People or pleasure Just what do you boast? Money, possessions Silver and coin Making the dollar The banks that you join Maybe it's people The young and the old Funny and smart And it's true to be told How's your time spent? The clock ticks away Just what do you value? I'm asking today Hours and hours Building your prize Just what can you see When you look with your eyes People or things Places or thoughts What do you value? Just what have you brought? If you value money It sure pays the bill But what about balance That gives us the thrill Take time to smell All the roses out there Slow down and look At the people who care If you value people Your friends will surround Leaving as legend When deep underground You can't take the toys That the money can buy But friendships are lasting We always can try A world full of lonely The hungry and sad So soon would be lifted Just give and be glad A friendship is worth So much more than a coin I wish we'd unite Even the greedy can join Melt all the hurt All the suffer and pain Someone to pour All the grief down the drain Giving a smile While saying hello Is worth so much more Than you'll ever know Value the people The laughter and touch Hang up the put downs Possessions and such Schedule a lunch A trip to the show Let all the people see "Love's what we know" Turn off the noises Clean up the minds Look at the hearts With our hands intertwined That's what I value Could you follow suit? All joined together There's no loneness to boot [comments] => 1 [counter] => 142 [topic] => 16 [informant] => jacobmanning [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => FriendshipPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
