Accumulation and Loss


There are no exceptions,
If you start out with nothing,
But add to it everyday,
Even if it's just a little,
Eventually it will fill a canyon;
And you will have plenty.
Small seeds can lead to tall trees.
Like attracts Like.

Conversely,
If you start out with plenty,
But take from it steadily,
Even if it's just a little,
Eventually it will erode mountains;
And you will have nothing.
This is the way of all things,
This is the law of accumulation and loss.

Being Inaccessible

Nurture without possessing. 
Love without owning.
Never clinging nor exhausting.
Neither desperate nor alone.    
Without need or worry.    
At one, yet still apart.
