The Gift

~

I admire those who have the gift,

The ability to rivet one's mind by way of words


Word play in fact.

Although, there are many ways to describe it


It is a gift in every sense;

It was given, by a higher power

It is unwrapped, a talent which grows and develops over time

However, the occasion to which this gift is obtained is not quite clear


It is a truly beautiful thing,

This gift.
