Giving

This poem is for everyone I love and care about in my life, and all my past, present, and future friends :).

Sometimes I give for giving.
Sometimes I give to get.
Sometimes I give memories.
Sometimes I just forget.

Sometimes I give homemade things.
Sometimes I give my time.
Sometimes I give stories
And sometimes I give rhymes.

Sometimes I give away things
That I don't want to lose,
But sometimes it's just mandatory –
It's something I can't choose.

But the best times are when I give
Because I decide to —
And that's why today for Thanksgiving
I give thanks to you.
