Gold is more than a precious metal

It’s a feeling, the one when the dust settles

And the victory is yours

It’s relief that you’ve won, and the battle is done

It’s an emotion of wonder

That comes when you discover

A treasure, physical or other

Gold is a color

Unlike any other

One of prestige and of merit to behold

The best of the best

Is what it represents

In any form, hot liquid or hard and cold

But more than both of these, Gold is a time

Gold is time in itself

The sun as it shines

The stars in the night

The golden of something well kept

And Gold is a soul

Of pureness and light

A light that can shine in the darkest of nights

A brightness that transcends the black and white

Yes Gold is a color that can represent life

The life of the trees as the sap leaks out

The life that the sun brings as it shines down

The life that lights up the eyes of a newborn’s parents

The light in the hearts of two life long lovers

Gold is a thing, yes this is true

And gold is a color, but more than a hue

It’s a feeling, a light

A soul, a view

So ask yourself this

Who brings gold to you

But more than that

Who do you bring gold to?
