A Treasure

I lost a treasure , Where could it be? 

I searched inside a hollow tree.

I searched inside the murky fog.

I searched under a long dense log.

I searched behind the tear drop of a little girl when she cried.

I searched behind a dead man’s eye. 

I looked deep under the stagnant waters in the swamp.

I’ve looked under the baby while being held in a mother’s arms.

I’ve looked under a rock. the belly’s soil still so moist.

I looked under a flower but I was careful not to dig up roots.

I’ve looked between each rain drop that falls from the sky. 

I looked between the sun beams and it shined a single ray to my heart.

Then Finally I realized I held the key.

The treasure was always inside of me.
