Even optimism changes

Dark mornings greet me with the soft sounds of animals rustling awake,

The chill in the air fills my lungs – awakening my consiousness

Change is inevitable- so say the trees

The gentle sound of water rushing over rocks, bouncing off the shore

Moving along the familiar path with optimism in my heart

Listening to the symphony surrounding me combined with the rhythmic sounds beneath my feet

The beating of my heart – a metronome keeping time

Thoughts begin to form and circle my head like a movie reel

Times changing almost quicker than the season,

Struggling to see past the uncertainty and embrace the anticipation

Rounding a corner – a variation of direction – just like the seasons

Finding a calm to embrace, everything changes

Even the most jagged of stones will be smoothed
