Cycle of Change

Trees and plants are green in spring and summer

Autumn comes around, the leaves turn red and orange

Winter arrives, and it feels like the storm lasts forever                            

Or that the sun hasn’t come out in forever

But nothing lasts forever, nor sunshine nor snow                                     

And the cycle begins all over again.

September came, and the leaves and my life changed                             

There was a time when it was calm

There was a time when it was not stressful                                            

Then came a time when it was anything but restful

But there will be a time, when everything is just peaceful

And yes, the cycle begins all over again.

See how quickly each day, minute, second passes                                  

Constantly moving into the next

Examine the universe, the planets and stars

Some are in the process of being born

Some are in the process of fading out

But yes, the cycle begins all over again.
