THE RAINS OF CHANGE

You seem so brave and so strong
While the winds wisp about.
Disappointments dominate
Visions of grandeur fade.

Will you face the mighty gales
Fixed firm as a stone.
Like rain upon a garden
Where the ground has been hardened,
Change comes to help you grow.

You remain a tender bud
Awaiting the day's light.
Soon the growth gives birth to bloom
Unsettled by storms of night.

Keep your roots firmly planted
When change comes as a storm.
Like rain upon a garden
Where the ground has been hardened,
Change comes to help you grow.
