Every year of age reveals more of lifeβs treasure
Time spent with those you love
Is much more than money can measure
And memories which each of
Consist of beautiful and painful moments
Moments which have evolved into lessons
Some lessons learned β or at least certain components
And time wishes to slow down, and with you it beckons
But as this is not within your power you soak it in
The good, the bad, the pain, the pleasure
For this life lasts until who knows when
So to those your love you should reassure
How they have impacted your life
Enjoy those spare hours to do something meaningful
Even though hardships may be rife
Work hard and do not forget to be cheerful
Life is a gift – no matter how it is wrapped
In a body small, big, dark, or light
If you ever feel trapped
Look to the one that can save you in your plight
For He is lifeβs greatest treasure
His grace, love, and forgiveness has not limits
His mercy knows no measure
Run to Him and accept the grace he exhibits
