Precious Time .

What is more valuable than diamond ...
More precious than solid gold .
Is worth much more,
Than what the rich adore ,
And cant be traded , bought or sold  ;

The answer is .... here and now ;
Yes its time ; trusted and always true .
And the most precious and most special 
Is the time I've spent with you .

oops, just returned to my comments and saw it was another person who commented on the tanka, but anyway, my tanka was also about precious time!
