the gift arrived
in a little box
not sealed with ribbon
no chains, no locks
though hard to open,
but once inside
the gift burst forth
no desire to hide
the gift shined brightly
on all around
so glad to be there
to see sky, water
and ground
the gift softly trembled
at the beauty of it all
at the paradise it resembled
the gift answered the call
the gift happens once
and it happens quite often
it is your life to live
in joy
until god closes the coffin
treat this gift with great kindness
respect and deep caring
love yourself and all those
around you
the gift is for sharing
