A Picture To Treasure

If I treasure treasure
I won’t be at leisure
Until there is a capture

If I treasure fixture
I will dare seizure
Until there is a full measure

If I treasure nature
I won’t be a vulture
That devours at pleasure

If I treasure culture
I won’t be a torture
That encourages displeasure

If I treasure future
I will nurture our mixture
That is the very big picture.
