Clouds do not stand still.
Trees bloom, then shed their leaves.
Tides come to shore, then retreat.
Night follows day
which in turn follows night
Life is a constant cycle,
Ever changing,
yet never changing
And we are a part of it all.
We will be here for a time,
but only until our time is done.
We have only just so much time
to make our mark,
So that we are worth remembering.
We should realize that we
are as important
as the clouds, the tides
and the seasons.
We have our place
and must play our part
as best we can
in life's ever-unfolding story.
Let
me age Lord, gracefully.
In love and strength and dignity.
Let me grow in wisdom each day.
And be a blessing in some little way.
