Bountiful

what is a gift if, it is not to make one feel gifted

by the gifter who gave the gift to the gifted

who received the gift gladly and admirably

the gifted blindly filled gleam faintly fell into

a spell between the lines of the gifters means

intentions motives that hung like a string

hanging from a spool of thread attached to

something too substantial to pick up on

how could a gift so shiny and bright

be devoted to something so heartbreaking

the gifter returned the gift swiftly

upon realizing that the gift from the gifter

was unraveling noticing that the bow was loose

though the gift was nice it also was used
