The Cleansing Wind of Change

The cleansing wind of change

The winds of change blow into the face of time.
Sweeping away the moments of the present , 
keeping the past from takeing the future.
Each moment struggles when it is born to remain and exist
for it knows its fate and does not want to fade away.
They become but memories some bitter and some sweet and 
the wind of change blows forever on, cleaning the way for the future.

Thank you. The past has always clung to me with a death grip and whispers its desperation in my mind and then I write it down in rhyme.
