Treasured



TREASURED.
Time brings maturity to all things in life,
Cuts through each day like a well honed knife,
When productive in mind body and soul,
Eagerly you strive to reach a specified goal.

Rain hail or shine precious minutes are used,
You never waste moments but tighten the screws,
Trying you're best to maximize what you've got,
So many things to do and exciting the lot.

Even when pressured there are occasions to rest,
Then revitalized you are at your best,
Whatever the activity each is sweet to hold,

Treasured like diamonds more precious than gold.
