Again I gain

Time and time again 
Rhyme and rhyme I gain
The old words I put together 
Their fluff and their leather
In their old conveyance business 
Arranging them in a newness

Over and over again 
Offer and offer I gain 
Divine providence 
Manifest in lyrical evidence
Manifest in reader approval 
A staying power without removal

Circle and back again 
Chuckle and buck I gain
Joy and reward 
Trade and meaning all aboard 
A gift that keeps on giving 
A life that I am living
