The Greatest Gift

Greatest gift is not found under a tree And you can’t buy it in a store It doesn’t come in the mail Or gets wash up on the shore It cannot be dig up like oil Or does it fall from the rain And you will never find it On top of the highest mountain The greatest gift can’t be value Like diamond, silver and gold And it can’t be crafted by hand Because it comes with no mold It’s not hidden in a dozen roses And it can not been seen It won’t fall from a plane above It’s not red, yellow or green You won’t find it in a speed train Or in your favorite song But it you look in your heart You will see its been there all along The greatest gift to give to someone Is our time, attention and our concern? To believe in them if they lose faith Standing on the bridge of no return From the kindness of our hearts Comes Love, compassion honesty? It’s the only gift that remains Long after we inter the cemetery Our pride, respects and dignity Is the gift we will leave behind? It will be the signature we sign To withstand the test of all time We have material possessions Its makes our life’s comfortable We work hard to have money To enjoy a lifestyle that’s affordable All of us have hopes and dreams And our needs take first priority Some to provide for their family A home of comfort and stability Every one sets their own table And how much sugar they put in their tea No one wants their boat to be rocking In a world of uncertainty Sometimes The future roads we travel We will have to push and get shove And the only comfort we carry in our heart Is the one’s that w e truly love And the one I love with all my heart Being in life seems like an illusion But I will not stop till it’s a reality As long as their fishes in the ocean I embrace the pain of missing her And burn it as the fuel on my journey And the day that I fall in he arms That will be god’s greatest gift to me
