Time - the greatest gift. - S o n n e t







I have a precious gift for you my dear,

The rarest and most costly gift  I have,

You can not touch it darling, but don't fear,

I offer it to you with all my love.

Love is prepared for sacrifice we heard,

It will perdure and thrive in any clime,

It gives for naught at all,- free as a bird,

Is even willing to trounce verse and rhyme.

It's hard to find so very rare it is,

A valuable, and exquisite boon,

It may surpass a man's capacities,

Is irrecoverable like a finished tune.

This offering so wondrous and sublime

I offer to you dearest one - MY TIME.
