I am looking for the poem or saying that goes along with the empty box valentine gift. Where the kids take a empty box that is wrapped and they decorate it and give it to there parents where they never open it. Does anyone have the poem that goes along with it. I think its a empty box of love poem not too sure.

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!

"This is a very special gift
That you can never see
The reason that it's special
It's just for you from me
Whenever you are lonely
Or when you're 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 this box close to your heart
It's filled with love inside
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Love In A Box

I'm giving you a present,
It's my love inside a box.
It's not too much to look at,
But it's the best I've got.

So I hope it makes you happy,
If it doesn't, I never can.
But if love in a box is worth it, then,
I'll take you by the hand.

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 that I think of you.

You never need to unwrap it.
Please leave the ribbon tied.
Just hold the box next to your heart,
It’s filled with love inside.

I love that poem and have been looking for it for some time. Does anybody know where I can order the mini wooden boxes with the Love in a Box poem on them? I guess I could make them myself, but I have seen them in a gift shop but can't remember where.

Thanks
Pam

just cut out a piece of cardboard and wrap it in paper and ribbon then paste your poem on top. Even use old gift bags as paper. Easy as pie and cost effective for larger groups.

Thank you so so much for posting this poem on line. I have been wanting to have it for ages. I have been saving little boxes (match boxes, jewelry boxes) to wrap and attach this poem to sell as inexpensive gifts for folks to buy. I also used to give them as gifts when I really could not afford to buy gifts.
I cannot thank you enough. You're an angel!
