Choosing

The best trade I ever made,
Great in value…
Did not I lose?

The best trade I ever made,
My bounty is full,
Did not I gain?

One week is seven days of variety.
One week is seven days,
Past or yet to come.
One week is seven days,
One day after another.
Seven days are seven days.

All of my choosing

I like this thought. I tend to count them, but not sure why. It's strange how a week was arbitrarily designed.
