Change... do not fear it...

CHANGE
by Brent Lenhard, Redondo Beach, California USA

Change is the way of life
Do not fear it
But,
Do not take it wholeheartedly.
Change can bring sorrow,
But,
Do not dwell on this sorrow,
For it will only destroy you.
Nature changes every season.
Does it grieve for the old Bluebirds that die?
No, but, listen to these words, child,
We are part of Nature,
Every one of us.
So, do not despair for the old Bluebird who
has died,
Celebrate his long life.
Remember these words, child,

We are all part of nature.
