Change is everywhere around us. Change is a journey that happens every year as the seasons flow into one another.

The world turns,

Changing every second,

With every whisper of the wind

Every movement of the sea,

Every song of the birds,

All the earth is in motion

Look at your surroundings

And see the change incarnate

Watch as spring first begins -

The flowers in their bloom,

The trees all green and glorious,

The sky a crystal clear,

All the worldseems light and weightless

Wesee nature and smile at its beauty

Watch as spring bursts into summer -

The sun shining brighter,

The air feeling warmer,

The heat healing the earth,

All the worldis free and cheerful

Wefeel fresh, vivacious and content

Watch as summer rolls into autumn -

The leaves turning all shades of orange

Nature taking on a deeper hue,

The cool starting to finally sink in,

All the worldbegins again, school, work, and play

Weadjust to a new routine

Watch as autumn fades into winter -

The air getting crisper,

The days becoming shorter,

Glittering snow falling softly to the earth,

All the worldis comfortable and cozy

Wesettle down to warm by the fire

Look at your surroundings,

And see the change incarnate

With every breath you take,

Watch the world turn.
