I like to know
\nthe date everyone is born.
\nHow many times they\u2019ve been born.
\nHow many lives
\nthey\u2019ve used between dawn and dusk.
\nA voice someone hears.
\nA letter found in a drawer.
\nA rose persisting in a garden.
\nA child\u2019s face that belongs to them.<\/p>\n
I like to pick up a book
\nand see no expiration date,
\nand believe
\nwith all my being,
\nthat no one I love has died.
\nNo one I could love has died.
\nThat everyone is an eternal
\nwork in progress,
\nand life gets bigger
\nthe younger it grows,
\nand one\u2019s birth date is
\nthe origin of the species.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
