Living to Give

LIVING TO GIVE

When we are living we are giving,

For life gives abundance,

In a symbiotic dance,

Distributing earth, wind, water and fire,

Inspiring to expire,

For the world is one breath,

The world is one life,

A living system that never dissipates,

It simply transfers energy,

For life is constantly yielding,

In an ecosystem that is joined by co-dependency,

That denies no need,

For the hardiest seed,

Germinates at boiling point,

As the tipping point is homeostasis,

A balancing act that needs no plot,
A simple rhythm giving as one receives,

In receiving one earns life to give of oneself.
