Priceless Gifts

This brings you a million good wishes and more
For the things you cannot buy in a store--
A joy-filled heart and a happy smile,
Faith to sustain you in times of trial,
Contentment, inner peace, and love--
All priceless gifts from God above!

Rings and jewels are not gifts, but apologies for gifts. The only true gift is a portion of thyself (RALPH WALDO EMERSON).
