Dust If You Must

in inspiration •  7 years ago 

dirt in case you need to, however, wouldn't it's higher

to color a photo, or write a letter,

bake a cake, or plant a seed;

contemplate the distinction between need and need?

dust in case you have to, however, there is not an awful lot time,

with rivers to swim, and mountains to climb;

music to pay attention, and books to study;

pals to cherish, and life to guide.

dust if you ought to, however the world's accessible

with the sun to your eyes, and the wind to your hair;

a flutter of snow, a bath of rain,

this day will not come around again.

dirt in case you ought to, however, undergo in mind,

old age will come and it is now not typed.

and when you cross and go you need to.

you, your self, will make extra dirt
