Poem
So, you want to know what is in my chest. Well there is no silver, there is no gold, There is no hope, there is no love, there is no girlfriend; there is no food, there is no charm, there is no honesty, there is nothing in my chest. It is empty, filled with cobwebs and dust, with a couple spiders hanging around looking for something to eat. I am like the spiders looking for something to eat, ingest hope, love, charm and honesty. No pirates will come and take my treasure chest away. There is nothing for them to take, but they don't know of the secret compartment, filled with poetry, filled with art, filled with culture, filled with my own love that I am willing to share. Everyone always looks in the chest, but never finds that secret compartment! What a shame, for if they found that secret, they would see life for what it really was. My treasure chest is a mystery too most people. I hope you all know, next time you look in someone's chest look for the hidden door, because that place holds the most beautiful of things. -9/20/13- For the conest: What is in your Treasure Chest Written by: Christopher Boskovski
