What I take is what I bring
In the give and take of it
In my turning I have learned
It is what I make of it
What I spent and what I earned
That is real around the wheel
Becoming understanding
By being undemanding
Being in it if not of
As now turns out from never
Wondering about it all
In the fall as wonderful
As whatever ever was
For the rest of it because
As I make the best of it
I recall it all and yet
I remember to forget
Mindfully to never mind
Letting go to leave behind
Anything lesser than love
When what then is whatever
What forever means to me
Is to outlive time to be
Always being always now
Always seeing how somehow
As the ever of my what
As whatever I have got
In the give and take of it
It is what I make of it
As now turns out forever
Nothing and yet everything
What I take is what I bring
