And You Give It Away

                                   As it comes with a voice and a face
                                   And you make a talk of it
                                   Talking to yourself a talk worth keeping
                                   And you put it away for a keen keeping
                                   And you find it to be a hoarding
                                   And you give it away and yet it stays hoarded

from
Love is a Deep and a Dark and a Lonely
Carl Sandburg
