overflow

i can't keep all the good stuff in
all the good stuff that is meant to be given
given away to make it better
given away and it fills up again
and i smile to see the beauty of you
when i least expect it you are
catching me
carrying me
in the sweetest way
that has ever been
your strength lies
in the unsuspected nature
of your kindness
the gift given
without price
or cost
if you ever knew
without you on my side
i would be easily lost
if you ever knew without you at my side
i would be easily missed
and missing the piece
that fits
the overflow
spills
and replenishes
the snowfed water
from the mountain cliffs
and i am the grateful pool
that reflects
all of this
