Treasures

by

John J. King 

 How does one measure treasure?

Is it the gold and silver that we find?

Or is it the secrets and

Memories of our minds?

 

Is it a loss of money,

That we once had?

Or the loss of a love,

That makes us sad?

 

As I live and I grow old,

I have learned

That love is warm,

And gold is cold.
