THE MOST VALUABLE GIFT
In this fast-paced world, where moments fly,
It’s easy to let time slip us by,
But hold on, dear friend, do you hear the chime?
For time, my love is truly prime.
For in this vast tapestry we weave,
It’s time that helps us truly perceive,
The beauty and purpose life should behold,
A cherished gift more precious than gold.
The measure of its worth cannot be told,
Yet often we stumble, our worth it unfolds,
We trade it for wealth, for success and greed,
And neglect the importance, oh, how we misread!
But listen, my dear, let me make it clear,
For time is the essence that brings us near,
To sharing, to caring, to love’s sweet embrace,
It’s a melody, a dance, a timeless chase.
To give someone time, it’s a heartfelt art,
A gift that mends, that heals the heart,
In a world filled with chaos, it brings harmony,
A symphony of moments for you and me.
So put down your worries, your burdens, and strife,
Embrace the value of time in this life,
For the most precious treasure you can bestow,
Is giving someone your time – it’s love’s sweetest glow.
In those stolen seconds, minutes and more,
We’ll find what we truly yearn for,
Connection, compassion, a love that’s true,
It all starts with time, my friend, with me and you.
So let us treasure this gift, every tick, every chime,
The most important thing, this precious time,
For as the clock winds down its last refrain,
The memories we create, forever shall remain.
