My Treasures



MY TREASURES

I had to leave my treasures all behind,
and little have I present to remind
me of those precious gifts God's given me-
just pictures and my failing memory.

I never understood it until here,
away from all those treasures I hold dear,
how I took them for granted when at home,
nor how much I would miss them as I roam.

And as I sit here seeing I have none,
I thank the Lord for each and every one
that He bestowed to me along my way,
with hopes that we shall reunite someday.

They are unique- the rarest find I know-
they make my joy in life to overflow
so great that only Heaven's joy transcends;
Invaluable- these treasures are my FRIENDS.

I am now a teacher in the Dominican Republic!- and missing all of my close friends very desperately. This was written October 24, 2009.

Do you know where you're spending eternity? If not, ask me how you can know!
