silver and gold
glittering colors of
precious gems
mostly loved
by women
of grace and power
but what are your silver and gold
in life and in all that you have?
my silver and gold
are the stories I tell
the poetry I write
inspired by nature’s
everlasting beauty and kindness
to humanity as it offers
wondrous gifts of
everlasting and magnificent
sight to behold
my silver and gold
are the people I love
people I care and people
I cherish
they make my life
shining
brilliantly
amidst
darkness and loneliness
and the greatest of these silver and gold
is non-other than
to be loved by you

I love that you ask, “what is your silver and gold?” It is so true that it is different for everyone. Some people want jewelry, gifts, money, while others want respect, kindness, peace. Others want different combinations but so different than the person next to them.
