What Is A Gift



Poem
What is a Gift?
8/4/2018 9:03 p.m.

A gift is bought.
A gift is given.
A gift comes from heaven.
A gift is dwelling within.
Just waiting to be discovered.
Where is your gift hidden?
Do you know?
Do you care?
Is your gift from heaven?
Is it just there just waiting to be discovered?
