Poem Artwork

Gifts come in many shapes and sizes,
Some are treasures, others are surprises.

Some are worth a hefty sum,
Others seem to come from none.

Some are given by those we love,
Others arrive like blessings from above.

Some come wrapped with bows so bright,
Others are felt, yet out of sight.

Each day on Earth is a gift anew,
A precious chance for me and you.

Treasure each moment, let it uplift,
And find within yourself your gift.

Discover your gift, embrace your part,
Share the goodness in your heart.

For gifts aren't measured by wealth or size,
But by the joy they bring to others’ lives.

My gift to you, both kind and true ,
Is sharing positive and thoughtful words with you.
  

D.L. Carroll

You are so right. Most people think of gifts as something that comes in a package, or an object given. But poets know there are other gifts that are much greater.

For me each new day is a gift. And when I look back at all of the gifts I received in my life. They far outweigh the losses and temporary setbacks that we all are heir to.

Life is good, and a gift every day.

Ron

I don't know how or why I haven't read more of your exquisite poetry. But I look forward to reading about your vision of happiness. A belated "welcome" dear poet, and may our friendship be filled with wonder!
