Change

The change is dynamic, a rhythm so sweet, 
Every second, time dances to its beat. 
Every moment, life, a constant flow, 
Dulling if static, refusing to grow.

Life spins in cycles, a carousel of change, 
Innocence fades, curiosity arranged. 
Maturity's embrace, a shift so profound, 
Old and wise, the whispers of age resound.

To savor life's flavors, a palette of shifts, 
Continuous change, the essence it lifts. 
Omnipresent like the weather's daily range, 
Trees, flowers, Nature, in constant exchange.

Ocean tides, their course ever rearrange, 
Life's woes metamorphose to joyous exchange. 
Night surrenders to the embrace of the day, 
Change, the constant in life's grand display.

"Love over anger," a wisdom declared, 
Hope over fear, a truth to be shared. 
Optimism triumphs over despair, 
In love, hope, and optimism, a world we repair.
