Change
I resisted when you wanted change
Unswayed I was, by the promise of new
So, holding on to the things of old
I lost you along the way..
Years went by, and change I did
Steered by the changing times
And through seasons of the old and new,
I missed you by my side..
Trudging along, down the cobbled streets
A slight limp in the aged feet
Pushed aside by the youth of new
I saw you walking by..
So here it was after eons had past
The beating of a deadened heart
The glory of some age old love
And we walked on, side by side..

So great to get another post from you… A very fitting poem to this new year, and what lovely imagery to usher it in… 2012 is supposed to be all about change!! Looks like you caught the wave early and will have a great ride!
