If you could give only one thing?
Most people would say they choose love.
Love is like a day in spring,
when the birds soar high up above,

from the south to the north fly,
also waking form sleep creation,
telling the winter's cold good bye,
and the earth starts resurrection.

If love was the chosen one
this simple gift how would you give?
Would there be attached conditions,
with self serving motives,

or could you give it freely,
not expecting a reward?
Would that be hard or easy,
needs to be consider before.

Some would choose to give money,
thinking that would solve some needs.
I think this thought is funny
their character can be seen.

Not that this is a bad thing,
we all can use some money,
but the gift of love is lacking,
and can fill all needs completely.

So what gift is in need of more
is something to think about,
digging deep in ones core
choosing right without a doubt?

Remember one gift can be passed,
that is all you have to give.
Want it to forever last,
or for a moment let it live?
A Michaelle Yarbrough
