In the game

In the game of Love
When we lose or win
to know and keep
close within
some times laughter
high tides and wind
some times to weep
and withdraw come in
please

Out of the rain
away from the pain
loneliness and cold
alone and not told
but to know the truth
is a high and a low
a complement and a blow
a yes and a no
the only two real words
in language

Add and multiply
knowing when and why
to make and do
to sow and reap richly
to profit and wage
as wise as sage
Reach a reward
for the trees have a store
of knowledge and goodness
for the sake of good
