Change
All at once change arrives and swiftly,deftly...Β Β alters all.
Unprepared and caught off guard we struggle not to fall.
And facing the unfamiliar instills us all with fear.
Not knowing to expect a smile or to expect a tear.
And the things we held so close to heart and believed would never go,
Are now nowhere in our sight or reach, for change has made it so.
Yet we are still expected by society and nature in kind,
To plod ahead courageously, uncertain what we'll find.
And so the sun rises yet again, another morn, another day.
And we must rise right along with it, and head about our way.
Grasping out so carefully, for things, which we believe,
Time itself can never change, and things that will not leave.
And we hold them tight with iron grip, as close as close can be.
But once again change arrives and rips them away.... so easily.
And once our years have wisened us, we learn to take this heed:
Change can alter any moment and truly nothing is guaranteed.
