This is our final
note...
Our last song...
Change is upon us
From nothing came to be
A thing soon to be a
memory
Seeds planted sprouted
beautiful buds
A tender hand held the
dream
Attention and love made
it bloom
Beautiful to the eye
was the sight
Bursting with pride the
light shone
Tall and forever
building beyond the boundaries
It weathered the storm
Through the thick and
thin
It was tested to its
limit of resources
Because as the months
faded into the next
So did the vibrant
colour...
Every day it got a
shade more dim
Lingering pedals clung
to the stem
Afraid to fall... and
fail...
From the branches that
once so tenderly cared
And held so strong...
A flood of tears rained
Washing away that final
thought
Bitter and cold to the
blowing wind of change
Ruin swept in with the
darkness
We are the stewards
that ushered this in
Now we watch over all
before us as it takes its last breath
From every season there
is a step taken
One to the next
On the pathway of life
This is our winter song
Where the deep frozen
sleep brings an end to all that flourishes
Leaving a single
solitary hope
For a new spring.
