CHANGE

by LaRue Watts

Everything changes.  Everything grows.
Seed becomes stem becomes bud becomes rose.
Rose becomes briar and so on it goes.
Everything, everything changes.

But changes can also be all for the best
If you put what's behind you, at long last, to rest.
Come into your own.  Make time for a quest.
Everything, everything changes.

Come out,
Out of the dark.
Look for a spark.
Come out.

Come to,
Coping anew.
Hoping for you.
Come to.

Come up,
Up to the skies,
Up for a prize.
Come up.

Come on,
On with a flair,
Double down dare.
Come on.

Come true.
Make your debut.
Miracle's do
Come true.

Come in,
Into the fold.
Be big and bold.
Come in.

Come through,
Finding your stride,
On for the ride.
Come through.

Everything changes.  Everything should.
Standing in place only shows where you stood.
You have to evolve to do anything good.
Everything, everything changes.
