TREASURES
Treasures of gold.
Trinkets of lost relationships,
Recollections of love,
Broken hearts mended at last.
Treasures of cloth.
Graduation and wedding gowns,
Rites of passage,
Relics to remember.
Treasures of paper.
Diaries and photographs,
Reminiscence of collected thoughts,
Documented moments.
Treasures of nature.
Pine cones and sea shells,
Mementos of vacations,
Reminders of a joyous youth.
Treasures upon treasures.
No worth to anyone,
No value. Yet priceless
To the collector.
