write a poem based on the following prompt: What has value? Write a poem about something that you value in your life.

Answer 1

In this world of noise and haste
Where everything seems to be a race
I pause to reflect on what truly brings me grace

Not the material possessions I own
Or the accolades I have sown
But the love that I have grown

The gentle touch of a loved one's hand
The way they truly understand
Their presence, a sanctuary in a world so bland

The laughter that fills the air
The feeling of being understood, of being cared
These are the things that cannot be compared

A kind word spoken in times of need
A gesture that goes beyond words, indeed
These are the treasures that I hold close to my heart, they feed

For what has value in this fleeting life
Is the love, the connections, the moments so rife
These are the things that truly make it all so ripe.
