Love in a box poem - Help

[HJT40]

a few years ago I read a poem that was to be given to someone special with a box. The poem was about the love that was inside the box and that the box was not to be opened. Can anyone help me with this as I have searched for it since and cannot find it???

Here you go:

I took an ordinary box
As empty as can be
I filled it with a special gift
And wrapped it carefully.

But please don't ever open it
Just leave the ribbon tied
And hold it tightly near your heart
Because my love for you's inside!

If you prefer to use bows over ribbon, simply adjust the poem to read:

I took an ordinary box
As empty as can be
I filled it with a special gift
And wrapped it carefully.

But please don't ever open it
Just leave the bow applied
And hold it tightly near your heart
Because my love for you's inside!

A Gift Of Love

This is a very special gift
That you can never see
The reason it's so special is
...It's just for you from me

Whenever you are lonely
Or even feeling blue
You only have to hold this gift
And know I think of you

You never can unwrap it
Please leave the ribbon tied
Just hold the box close to your heart
It's filled with love inside
