The Mysterious Chest

I am a mystery, a vessel of delight, a small, fragile wonder shining white.
With a God-given shield, a masterpiece of grace, a hidden gem of life’s embrace.
A testament to the wonders we can find, a secret dance of miracles unfold.
Nurturing life, a precious seed I keep, a promise of beginnings buried deep.
A delicate shell, a fortress strong, protecting the mysteries that belong.
In simple forms, this existence of mine. In this marble chest, a treasure I hold,
No lid to reveal my secrets profound, a symphony waiting to resound.
The sun’s bright heart, a golden flame, an emblem of love, forever the same.
I am a chest of marble white, a radiant gift, a beacon that glowed.
Infusing my being with warmth and light, illuminating the shadows of the night.
Let me rest in this sanctuary of mine, with the sun’s heart beating, divine.
a treasure trove, an extraordinary sight. Within me stirs a universe untold,
A symbol of love, hope, and endless grace, radiating within this sacred space.
From the confines of my marble chest, I yearn to share the blessings I’m blessed.
No lid to unveil what lies within, from heavens above, it was gently bestowed,
A vessel of life, a vessel of potential, a catalyst for dreams, sublime and essential.
So let me dwell here, in serene repose, as life within me tenderly grows.
a mystery waiting, where life’s joys begin, a journey of existence, yet to unfold.
