Standing Strong

As the seasons change, I think of all the changes in life From the growth of a flower To the loss when it dies To the changes of color As weather takes us from, Warm to cold and back again To lessons I have learned, From things I have tried The healing from pain, When there is heartbreak Strength gained by release, Of turbulent emotions Stripped bare like trees in winter Standing strong, roots spreading Grounded in the seasons of change - Life moves on - Heidi Sands 5/27/18

Yes my friend as in nature, life is the greatest of all riddles; because we must all give it up.
