Fading Seasons

Seasons come and seasons go

A child is born

A child grows

A mature adult takes their place

The space of magic, miracles and messes

Ends and soon enough only the memories remain

A time of change, opportunity and growth

One can only forge on, knowing life is a cycle

It begins, evolves, changes and then ends.

The moments of life’s glory are truly all we have to hold to

Everything else fades away, and none of it can be taken with us when we’re gone.

When the nest is emptied, and you’ve moved on

Look back in fondness, do not burrow down into all that’s sad.

Nothing lasts forever, and honestly, that’s not so bad.
