Priceless - gift


The best gift

you can give someone

is what

i wonder



is it wealth

Oh but that

is a fickle friend

with no guarantees

of staying until the end



is it a flower in bloom

Oh but that

will wilt by noon

being enemies

with time



is it love?

Hmm..but how long

will care last

will it not be gone

when death beckons…?



is it strength?

could be..

what matters

is what kind of strength…



is it freedom?

who am i…

dear one..

to give someone

freedom?



knowledge?

Great….

But kind one…

what kind of knowledge?


True learning?

Oh…the same gift..

i have been given??!!

The One thing

most precious to me??!!

without which

i have no life?..

no meaning to exist?..

i cannot give that dear one…

It is not mine to give!!

i can only

pass It on.. J

so you don’t have to wonder

when you want to gift someone

the most precious gift

ever made..!!
