' Love And Happiness ' Poem by Marvin Brato Sr

Often we are overwhelmed by work
as we intent to accumulate more
that we ignore one vital thing
the essence to enjoy true love
that enthuses innate happiness.


Most thought that money
buys both love and happiness
that it can replace the absence
of our presence that our children need
by giving them contentment with luxuries.

Work and money compensates for probation
of material needs for mundane satisfaction
yet it can not be a true replica to substitute
for our presence required by our beloved family
no work or money can create true love and happiness.
