Trading

We trade the seasons
Like surplus ideas
Years slipping by
Noticed
More experience in the bones
Less time on the balance sheet
Opinions expressed direct
Values
Treasured
Discreet

We trade the decades
Like surplus seasons
Years slipping by
Treasured
More memories in the heart
Less time on the balance sheet
Disappointment gradually brushed away
Dreams
Chased
Vigorously

We trade our dreams
Like surplus years
Disappointments slipping by
Movement
More focus in the mind
Less time on the balance sheet
Hope
Occasionally walks by
Living
Still the best
It seems
