All Things Change
a Puddle
…so calm
transforms into Vapor
…so mysterious
which becomes a Cloud
…so swollen
then forms Raindrops
…so invigorating
that sprinkle down to water Seeds
…so promising
which grow into Fruit
…so wholesome
to feed the Child
…so innocent
who grows into Man
…so zealous
who Smiles
…so sweetly
who Frowns
…so sadly
who Laughs
…so heartily
and Cries
…so sorrowfully
All Things Change
Strive On…
Courageously
