A word beyond compare

Did you know? I think you know
A word beyond compare
It isn't terse - not in this verse
And it isn't a foul swear

It isn't a superlative
And it isn't very rare
It isn't 'and' or 'but' or 'with'
And it isn't 'underwear'

It isn't astronomical
Or written in the starts
It can't be gastronomical
Or from Jupiter or Mars

But when I'm with my wife and child
Both straight from heaven sent
The word of words to rule all words?
Well that word is 'content'
