What is the most expensive
gift and could it be time?
Who has not loved
their lover and who
has not loved their friend?
But who can love
the unlovable and
give their precious time?
A stranger might be just
a friend we have not yet met
and must be just worth
the time.
Who can stoop so low
to stand so high
for a child?
Can you play with
a child and even
let him beat you?
Can you comfort
the one who hurts
enough to put up
their anger?
I may love you
but do I have to
like you?
Can you be there
for me and share
your precious time?
Time is the most
expensive gift
but doesn't have to
cost us a dime.
