Treasures
I sit amongst my memories
A slight smile cascades my lips
Reflections of my life pass by
All the treasure I now miss
I sometimes miss my past life
All those treasures that helped me through
And then on some unsuspecting day
I get this gift from you
A gift to help me remember
That we're blessed in all we do
God replaces all my past gifts
With this treasure I find in you
Reflections still come often
As we need them to carry on
But we must always live for today
To keep our memories strong
So thank you for my treasure
As I now give one to you
All I offer is my friendship
In hopes it helps you through
