We fight against it
fear all phases
worry about outcomes
want to control
Resistance is futile
change continues always
ever constant
always present
We push back harder
hoping to avoid
wanting to keep
what we think we need
Universe pushes back
we struggle to stop it
afraid of what we
may become
Universe knows better
all life
all growth
needs change
Be calm
accept what is
let go of what was
become new

There is beauty in letting go
a coloring of change
making way for something new
preparing to undergo transformation
flashes of brightness and being bold
everyone notices each phase of the change
until we lie dormant regathering our strength
quietly waiting for new life to begin
whispering winds of renewed hope
fall into becoming
the trees will show you the way

New year tho nothing truly is
same it seems but for a date
and a year to grow older
not much new in this
Opportunity is new
chance to change, grow
choices yet to make
new roads to travel
New time once again given
tho not a guarantee
to make each moment new
for another may not come
Day 1 to be as happy
as you make your mind up to be
new yes same yes
it’s all in what you see
