A simple treasure
Withstanding time...
A ransome's pressure
The disregard of what is fragile
A sum of worth
Remarkable and special
Admired and revered
A showcase item...
Shadow smile veneered
At arms length
Grace and strength
Museums measure
Crystal for your pleasure
The chime of time
That comes and goes
While only silence knows
What shatters glass
