Analysis of A Treasured Gift
The gift of sight is life's
most precious.
To see the world at it's
best,
To see the wonder of a baby's
birth.
A mischievous smile on
the face of a child.
The brilliant colours of
birds in flight.
A rainbow over the the
horizon.
The love in the eyes of
your sweetheart,
All the emotions that tell
us how the heart is feeling.
