priceless

all the earth's a Jewelry Box
with Gems both Bold and Bright:
a Golden Necklace lights the day,
a Silver Pearl the night;

'cross Emerald Fields and Meadows,
over Amber Waves of Grain,
the Jasper Sunset echoes through
the falling Agate Rain.

and yet, in all this Box of Gems
with all its Glitt'ring Stones,
No Piece can match YOUR Saphire Eyes,
YOUR Lips' Red Ruby Tones;

and though I owned the Sky, the Earth,
and all the Crystal Sea,
I'd give it all to hold YOU now
If YOU would but have me.
