It’s not a waste,
not a memory to erase,
not a time to let go–
no, no! not at all;
for this time is a growth
that stirs us up to the
heights of what we are and
and what we don’t know.
Not a waste! Not at all!
There’s no purpose in regret,
for all there is is now and when,
and to that end let’s seize it
for ourselves and make the
time not pass without a planting of
beginnings that grow from this
history of not so normal to a place
of finding the living in the dusty
garden filled with new soil.
