A Touch of the Heart
Daily we strive for treasures of the storehouse, wealth
and possessions;
And within us are treasures of the body, such as health,
beauty and talent.
The things we need to seek most are treasures of the heart;
Love, beauty, dreams and goodness --- all these are born
of the heart.
They well forth, never-ending in abundance, from the hopeful,
optimistic heart.
So many times in this hard life, when only our hopes and
dreams pull us through;
The mind often tells us to run and escape;
But the hope-filled Heart says
"Abide, be patient and never lose hope... your day will
come."
My day is here... Please come with me and share my sunlit
fantasy;
Peel away the layers and view my dreams;
Let my dreams, my treasures of the heart,
Awaken those that are treasured in yours.
