For Everything There Is A Season
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, © 2019

Life is full of change
If it wasn't it would be so strange
Everything would remain the same
It would be like playing a boring game.

For everything, there is a season
And always a good reason
We may not see it now
But all progress it does allow

Imagine if no progress was made
If change just made us all afraid.
Alter your attitude and look for the good
Let things evolve as they should.



If I Could Change My Life
Poet: Julie Hebert, © 2015

If I could change my life,
What would I actually change.
This question makes me wonder,
What change could I arrange.

First of all, I know that,
My past would stay the same.
I would never make a change,
That would take from the life I came.

If I could make a change,
It would be to me here and now.
Maybe I'd change my habits,
Or maybe I would change a vow.

But one thing I know for sure is,
I like my life as is.
I'm sure there are things to better myself,
But I am thankful for life as it is.



Change In Plans
Poet: Julie Hebert, © 2012

Of what to say.
But I wonder why,
You're not on your way.

What changed your mind,
What swayed you away?
What is your reason,
You want to stay?

You had such plans,
Such wonderful plans.
I thought in time,
You'd have many fans.

Whatever made you
Doubt your view.
I hope you know,
I believe in you.

We would rather be ruined than changed;
We would rather die in our dread
Than climb the cross of the moment
And let our illusions die.
