If I was destined
to create a treasure:
I would take
a professional football player,
a golden ray of sun (a gift of the gods)
and a pocket – sized land Otter
I would grab the sound of
a million birds singing as the sun comes up,
a gentle stream that stretches throughout a jungle
and a platoon of purring panthers.
I would pinch the smell of
a batch of baked bread,
a drop of rain after not raining in days
and a bubble bath in the evening after getting soaked in a storm.
I would swipe the taste of
a warm traditional cornish pasty after being in the frozen food isle,
a billion chicken and bacon pies
and a pizza party.
I would snatch the feeling of
a piece of sandpaper rubbing my feet,
a fur rug next to a warm fire
and the feeling when you go to sleep and know that everything is alright.
I would take the courage that will get me through the day.
