91. Family Heirloom: Write about an object that's been passed through the generations in your family.
A necklace of golden hue
Gracing the youthful bloom
Of a girl clad in white --
The very opposite of night.
*
Delicate ivory lines
Cut as thin and fine
As the flutter of a wings
Or when the morning bird sings.
*
Traced with small hands
The golden thread withstands
The virulent test of hours
And the withering if flowers
*
Dead, is it not
Yet unable to rot
An object of being
A soul without seeing
*
Its life is in the hands
On which is lightly lands
Should the love given it be lost
Then its value is better tossed
*
A necklace of small worth
I shall say that first
A piece of great value
And of preciousness too
