Change

Every where I look
SOMETHING or SOMEONE
Seems to be always on the go,
If not physically or
In that moment in motion
There are changes soon to be noticed,
There's movement all around.

Motion from one place to another
From one stage of life to the next
Our children quickly grow
and soon we are grandparents
But how exactly did we get here?
What details have we missed?

Were my eyes shut all this time?
Was I too busy to realize?
That NOTHING stays the same forever
NOTHING remains unchanged
Our world, our lives and those we love
Are always gonna change.

If this change,......has got to happen,
Then I'm not going to miss a thing
I'll be right there in the mix and
I'll take note of every detail
Every tear that's shed, every word that's said
Every sound of laughter heard
Every thing that's worth remembering

No..... I'm not gonna forget who I am
I'm just going be a newer and improved me!
For just as the caterpillar spreads its wings to fly
When it changes to a beautiful butterfly
So too am I changing from a beautiful litlle girl
To a strong,independent, confident and self assured woman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
