Ribbons and Wrappings

What are heartfelt emotions without words to caress them? What are well-versed phrases without actions to address them? What are thoughtful beliefs without truths to express them? What are feelings, flattery, faith without proof to refresh them? Pots of gold at the ends of a sky full of ribbons Upon boxes of beautifully wrapped gifts never given.
