Whenever you think
you have it
you don’t
it cannot be had,
held or stored
open your hand
ease the grip
forget the grab
and use your
delicate fingers
tipped for touch
to sort and sift
and search
find joy in the
infinite unfolding
there is always
something more
allow a childhood
thrill to fill
the moment
and re-discover
what you already know
then
like a butterfly from a net
let it go
