Gold And Silver

She had found out the hidey-hole
of all the gold you could ever use
and all the shiney silver too.
When he begged to know and told her 
all their dreams could come true
she said "I know, I know, and you know as well as I do."
Imagine him exasperated, bewildered but unrelenting,
boldly crying "TELL ME."
And hear her reply 
" You see a cloud rolling to the horizon, 
free winds carrying it further too.
You also move forward, quickly growing old.
In so brief a span of time you'll search for answers 
and find one or two, you must give and receive gifts,
you'll decide what you strive to keep and treasure
including gold and shiney silver. 
It is all here on earth, you have no further to look
and although you'll never see beyond the horizon
everything of value is within your reach.
May you be happy as you collect and you distribute
for so brief a span of time."
