Treasure Hunt

Once you found it, you can quit looking.

It ain’t on the shelf. Any shelf. Never was. Can’t make enough money to buy it. It ain’t for sale.

You’re born with it. Live for it. Die without it. Live forever with it.

Someone can hand it to you. You must be present to win.

Try and hide from it and you will succeed. Keep it for yourself and it dies. Worry about keeping it and it runs away. Won’t come when you call it. Can’t force it to stay.

Ache for it. Long for it. Pine for it. Wish for it. It is inside of you. On the other side of the pain you inflict on yourself by keeping it from others.

It was yours and can be again. When it is yours, it will stay as long as you share it. Feel everyone, it is all yours. Let others feel you and they will give you even more.

Hear it in the music and speak it in your words. Read of it then sing of it to all that hear you. Dance to it, for it, and in it. See it in the paintings. Paint it for the seeing.

Dressed to the nines or naked as the jaybird, flash it in your eyes as you smile and high step in the silliest celebrations.

Give it and have it. Have it and give it. Wait for it and wait alone. Hunt for it and hunt alone. Be it and feel it. Feel it and be it.

Have a bite of mine. Feast until you are full. Yum, Yum, eat ‘em up. There is a lot more. Plenty more. Good and Plenty more. More than enough to go around. All the way around. Round and round we go. Makes the world go around.

X marks the spot. XXX. OOO. Hugs and kisses.

Tag, you’re it.
