Wax and Wane
Ever positive, ever growing,
The emotions will keep flowing
The flit of a bird,
The sound that is heard,
The senses rejoice
Joined in one voice
One call, One chorus
heard throughout the forest.
As the summer comes to a close
Sitting there sunning in repose.
Marveling at life’s great changes
The things that it rearranges
The life that is wrought
from the battles that were fought.
The strike of the barb
The rend of the heart
The willing retort
The retreat to pillowed forts
But the strength from within
A new beginning to begin.
New heights to climb
A new time to shine.
Enjoy the life that is given
As that’s the one worth living.
