Seasons of Change

The saying goes "Everything Changes"
"No storm lasts forever."
So why is change so hard?
When its supposed to be the only sure thing in our lives?
Do the leaves complain?
Because its time to fall
Does the tree cry?

I know you think. A tree cannot speak
But that is its greatness
Are you that simple minded?
To not understand the world around you?

They don't need a brain to know,
The need water to grow
They don't need a heart to know,
That the sun is its friend

So what is the secret?
why they have seen centuries,
but are so content,
that they don't whisper a word

When the tree falls
who cares who hears it?
within tells its story
because it allowed to be changed
by the unchanging
until it says
Here ends this journey
It's time to begin a new one.
