She had worn it everyday
since she had recieved
the gift
but then it finally.
fell off on the floor
she searched until she found it
tucked it inside
a box she had bought
marked “Abundance”
the broken clasp
and frayed strap
made the treasure
all the more special
etched words
that showed
an understanding
the giver had known
and although she didn’t have it on
she still felt the presence
of the one who gave the words
that were tucked away
in abundance.
