The Art of Giving
May 12, 2011
You give me a dead mouse
and I'll give you cash.
You come up with the rolling sea
and I'll give you an empty glass.
Give me air and I'll give you space,
except if you have black hair
then I'll give you a shining crown of olive leaves.
Show me inexperience
and I'll show you too many reins.
Bring me winter and I'll give the world
nothing but disdain.
Give me faith
and I'll have everything I've ever wanted
and more.
I'll tell you my story
if you show me what you are looking for.
