One Art
by Elizabeth Bishop

The art of losing isn't hard to master;
so many things seem filled with the intent to be lost that their loss is no disaster.
Lose something every day.
Accept the fluster of lost door keys,
Accept the fluster of lost door keys,
the hour badly spent.
The art of losing isn't hard to master.
I lost two cities, lovely ones.
And, vaster, some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent.
I miss them, but it wasn't a disaster.
Even losing you...
the joking voice, a gesture I love I shan't have lied.
It's evident the art of losing's not too hard to master though'it may look like...
(Write it!)... like disaster.
(Write it!)... like disaster.
