If I were told

to create a treasure,

I would take:

The horn of a unicorn,

The last song of a robin

And the snap of a lobster’s claw.

The shadows from a dark night,

The smile from the Mona Lisa 

And the nuts and bolts from the Eiffel tower.

The clap of thunder from a storm,

The tick of a clock

And a twig from a great oak tree.

The first tooth of a baby,

A spark of magic from a wizards wand,

The colors of a rainbow

And chip from a once proud vase.

The first brown spot of a banana,

A bolt of lightning from the eye of a storm,

The first drop of rain

And a spring from a mattress.

A toenail of a witch,

The smell of a flower,

The taste of fresh apple pie,

A diamond big enough to live inside of

And a feather of an eagle.
