Running Water
The world is spinning,
round and round
Always moving
Always changing
The world we lived in yesterday
Is not the world of today
In this everchanging world,
What difference do we make?
What are we but tiny molecules of water,
Flowing through the river of life?
But it's those molecules of water
that wear the path the river runs.
They change the path the river flows
but never see the difference
For they are running ahead
Take a lesson from the river
You make a difference
Even if you never see the changes wrought
