Life's Ever-changing Boulevard
The wonder of life's infinite potentials that stem from the smallest interaction
Won’t you take a walk with me
Waltz with me
As we stroll down life’s ever-changing
Boulevard?
Will you skip stones with me
Dance with me
When the wind passes by?
Sway with me in your arms
as the leaves change hue
and autumn as said her goodbyes?
Will you keep me warm
When the wind grows cold?
We can whisper secrets by the fire.
Tell each other stories
That had never been told.
When the snow has thawed
And the rains are gone
Will you roll in the grass with me
Laugh with me
While we bask in the sun?
Will you kiss me among the wildflowers?
Your hands like the tall-grass
laced in mine
and lips like roses
We can pass the time
We can watch the clouds,
the sun,
and the moon go by.
Will you pause and breathe with me?
The fresh air-
The salt air
so humid and sweet.
We can trace our footsteps through the sand
Just as we traced them in the snow.
In the mud.
In the streets
When we took a walk through life and its ever-changing
Boulevard.
Though it wasn’t always pleasant,
Wasn’t always as sweet.
With pot-holes and closures.
If we could go back to that very first day,
Would you still take a walk with me?
