For every
parcel I stoop down to seize I lose some other off my
arms and knees, And the whole pile is slipping,
bottles, buns, Extremes too hard to comprehend at.
once Yet nothing I should care to leave behind.
With all I have to hold with - hand and mind And
heart, if need be, I will do my best. To keep their
building balanced at my breast. I crouch down to
prevent them as they fall; Then sit down in the
middle of them all. I had to drop the armful in the
road And try to stack them in a better load.
