Contentment
By Mahmud Vellani •
Contentment is that golden light
That warms hearts
And makes them clearly shine
That which brings
New depth to human sight
That makes the most difficult
Seem simple and bright.
It may be part of evening fireside talks
Or just a smile across the table length
It may surround woods on autumn walks
Or brighten faith with
New discovered strength.
Contentment is that ray
That warms the soul
And gives courage to follow hearts
Across the farthest knoll.
And lucky is that heart
Where it abounds.
