The Treasure Chest

The Treasure Chest

Jessie had a princess doll,
With a cushion and a shoe,
A Cinderella bed and chair,
And coach and horses too.

She loved the charming handsome prince,
But the thing she loved the best,
Tucked away among the toys
Was a tiny treasure chest.

"I've got no treasure, Grandma,
To put inside it now,
I need some jewels small enough
To fit inside somehow."

So Grandma searched for treasure,
Like a locket or a ring,
And there, inside a secret drawer,
She found the very thing.

Two tiny silver buttons
That glittered just like stars,
She handed them to Jessica
And said, "Dear, here you are."

"I've got some diamonds!" Jessie squealed,
"I'm thrilled and happy too.
What makes you happy, Grandma?"
And Grandma answered, "You."
