Treasure

A Poem by Melinda McQueen

Treasure

 

Over the sea

There lay a treasure.

Though she knew not what it was,

Somehow, she knew its measure.

 

Though her eyes couldn’t see it,

Her heart knew it was there.

Though far away,

It was in her care.

 

It sparkled, it shone,

Catching her attention.

The more she thought upon it,

The more she saw its reflection.

 

For it was tucked safely

Inside of her.

Every breath she breathed

Was her lure.

 

Standing on the shore,

She caught a glimpse of her treasure.

For she realized it wasn’t far off,
But it was her faith, she was sure.
