when time flies

i watch the dates float past
little pieces of paper
with their bright, gawdy numbers
telling me how precious they are
right before they vanish

taking with them bits of summer
and bits of me

but i let them go at it
for no scheme in the world
can take from me
that which is most precious

that which i have
already given to you
