Trinkets

It's funny how we humans

Grow attached to little things,

Like baubles, bangles, beads and bracelets,

Necklaces and rings,

Little statues, candle holders

Tiny little toys,

Cuff links, tie clips, broaches,

Earrings for both girls and boys.

These tiny little trinkets,

Usually of little worth,

Can oft become the greatest treasures

We have on this earth.

And who's to say that we are wrong?

It's not a money thing.

The value of our trinkets

Is in the joy they bring.
