Pass Over

You gave me a freshly plucked conker
I bought you fake crystals

Your gift is full of life
It will grow old gracefully
The kernel will dry out
The skin will wrinkle

My present, although
Indestructible, is an imitation, yet
It will shed the light of rainbows
Into all the shadowy corners

Together our purchases
With our findings, will help
That we find ourselves, will keep
Our souls safe, to become nourished
