A Gift..........

A Gift . . .

What have I done,
to deserve this gift I've received..?
It is a gift without comparison,
that is more precious to me than can be believed.

I don't know why I've been blessed,
with such a heavenly gift.
And if this is truly a dream,
then I never want this sleep to lift.

Why you chose to give me this gift,
is more than I can see.
But in return I promise,
that you will never lose me.

I will stay by you always;
never letting you fall.
And if you are ever in danger,
I will defend you until I fall.

For you are a gift,
that I hope never to lose.
And for as long as I live I'll know,
no gift in this world deserves to be cherished more than you . . .
