Concede To Change and Conquer

Sailing along watching waves slightly grow 
each has there own adventure to tow. 
Looking ahead forgetting the past. 
Though lagging are the impressions people made last.
Easier to look on and embrace what’s in store, 
than to want for something that is no more. 
Letting go is hard to do 
when there is no valid reason for saying adieu.
We all make choices & our journeys part. 
Lacking moments notice; without consent of ones heart.
Always in ones mind sharing the friendship and times. 
Journey onward making days of new song and rhymes. 
So freeing is traveling with the wind while observing changing seasons. 
The beauty of the new horizon makes peace the souls grievance.
Ease down your sails for the broad reaching. 
Explore in this life through learning & teaching.
A word not spoken of the depart, 
only shown from the plotting of the travelers chart. 
Do not spend time dwelling on what might have been
Clinging to what’s exhausted neither one could win.
Where there is a chair that once was filled 
now an empty place for taking if so willed. 
Make life valid through connections and love. 
Not just have happiness but an immense amount of .
