The Seasons Change and So Do I
A blazing sky of cobalt blue
Greets me with the light of dawn
I take a breath of frosty air
And ignite a fire in my cold soul
The dying leaves of autumn
Burn brightly before they fall
The beautiful hues of golden change
Inspire my strength and my resolve
The endless autumn forests
Dance wildly in the breeze
I throw my words into sky
The mountains echo my scream
The changing of the seasons
The passage of the time
Finally mean something to me
The life I live is mine
To leap into the amber waves
Without a care at all
My journey begins anew today
There’s beauty in the fall.
