The Treasure Poem by James Casey

The Treasure

The treasure is love,
More precious than gold
This is a true love story,
More beautiful than anyone has ever told

Love is that sweet smile,
Gentle words of tenderness
It chases away all fears,
And heals your terrible loneliness

Two hearts that beat as one,
Repairing what past loves have left
All the doubts we felt inside,
Disappear with a lovers breath

Don't give your heart too freely,
Wait and see what is there
For true love will always be with you
If they really, really care

The gift of love, you give
Is the most cherished kind
Choose very carefully to whom you give it
Lost love is forever, and forever is a very long time.
