Let It Go

Hovering in the new city one night, I found a box on the ground. The box so bright, no one even noticed underground. As I was waiting on a pew, children rushed in On a train they scampered and ducked in. I didn't get the last ride on my way So I just kept my card for the subway. The next day I saw a box anew Nobody picked it up again, that's what I knew. On the third day, I saw a different box and took it Laid it down where I stored the first two boxes I previously got. One policeman approached me and asked, "Have you seen a strange box these days?" I replied, "What kind of box?" The policeman said, "Three small boxes are missing from the subway store and they contain valuable items. There's a reward for the finder." I said, "I am the finder, but not the keeper. I know where the boxes are." The policeman expressed his gratitude, "Then, you're the keeper!"" I said, "No, just the finder. You need not ask again. You are standing on them right now..." The policeman stepped aside from a terminal vent, opened it and found the three missing boxes. The store insisted on rewarding me. I just said, "I am already rewarded without being awarded." God will take care of me all the time! (Prosebite)

Oh, that I could hold all in the open palm of my hand and still smile if it flies away. Thank you for this gem!
