Powerful DependenceBest Things in Life (Poem)
By Les Henson.
The best things in life
are unassuming and ordinary.
The smile of a mother
and the laughter of children.
A long walk
in the early morning.
An evening with mates
amid the cut-an-thrust of debate.
The simplest of meals
eaten with family and friends.
Watching a wild sea
as it crashes on the rocks.
Reading a good book,
curled up on the couch.
The warmth of the sun
after the recesses of winter.
It is the simple things in life
that make life so worthwhile.
