Love is like playing the piano. First you play by the rules, then you must forget the rules and play from your heart.

Where the treasure is found,
No ship, nor sail,
No man can be bound.

Indeed, you'll find the quest,
Has no map, no bearings
And is by far not a jest.

Lo behold!
This treasure is not jewels, nor money,
No, not even gold!

Search not far
Beyond the sea, the land, the door!
Indeed, it's quite bizarre!

Held in your heart
In your mind, in your soul;
There it will stay, never to dart.

The treasure is memories,
With your friends, with your family;
Oh, what a joy, to cherish these stories!

My inspiration was my friend of five years birthday. She is in to little treasure items and building ships. Also, since we have been friends for so long, I hoped that she would remember and cherish the memories we have.
