Cha, Cha, Cha, Change Is
Spring is here, not just on paper.
The inevitable shift took place.
From instinct,
For better-
Nature
Has decided.
It's time to move forward.
Not because everyone says so.
I am ready,
Regrets are over.
Past has passed,
Dust is settled.
Once afraid to take a step,
I live with an excitement
I can't recognize,
Because
It's been
So long.
The old crutches are gone.
Festering cracks forced my weak hand
To let go
As the splinters, half in the bag,
Were trashed then
Twisted, into a tight knot.
Warm feelings stream around me.
Due to an occasional dip,
Bad memories
Of the cruel, sharp, bitter coldness
Aren't yet forgotten,
But melt in an instant.
Spring's new shoots and bits of growth,
Will live, growing strong, healthy and productive.
Despite the strangler
Vines and rot,
They will thrive
And flourish, enthusiastically.
Yes! Spring has arrived!
There's a fresh breeze of change,
The stubborn stench
Of stagnation dried up.
Minds are opening,
As well as windows.
