Changes

Are perennial

Jess! Daughter of Builder and Author.

There’s always room for change
And some more modification
When something doesn’t fit right
It’s best to try some alterations.

It may be my behaviour
Or something that doesn’t fit
That needs a trim or file down
Or a piece added on to it.

It’s often in the way I walk
In different terrain
And the way I drive
In the sunshine or the rain.

Though it is mostly personal
Awareness and respect
Consideration and empathy
And the way that I connect.

It happens to me every day
Nothing stays the same
What was good yesterday
Today may be inane.

I try to keep the antennae
Trained in the right direction
And always remain prepared
For more modification.

Changes are perennial
They happen all the time
Today, I stand on level ground
Tomorrow, one more hill to climb.
