Precious Gift

I have a very precious gift

But

Don’t touch it

Until I give it to you

Don’t shake it

Until I give it to you

Don’t peek

Until I give it to you

Don’t unwrap it

Until I give it to you

Don’t squeeze it

Until I give it to you

It’s very special and it’s for your eyes only

I need you to take good care of it for the rest of your life

I will give it to you on your wedding day

My gift to you will be my daughter or son

I take good care of them

I pray for them

I feed them

I look after them

I protect them

I teach them

I love them

I do everything for them

And

I expect you to do the same

Or

I will be coming after you!

Do not stir up nor awaken love Until it pleases.

Song of Solomon 8:4
