"Change" People change as surely as the seasons Though most would not admit a change has come And many change uncertain of the reasons And others know exactly what it's from Moments in our lives can mold and shape us For good or ill, the choice is ours to make We mustn't let the chance to change escape us To stagnate in ourselves is a mistake December 20, 2009 AMdG "My candle burns at both ends; it will not last the night; but ah, my foes, and oh, my friends--it gives a lovely light!" -Edna St. Vincent Millay |

The message of your poem was understood that change is inevitable and that we must continue to strive and adapt. If only life were so easy. Sigh.... |

It is said that the more things change the more they stay the same. I hope that doesn't apply to people. It would be like a process of changing only to the extent that one reinforces and fortifies his narrow view of the world, as in, say, angry political ideology that is so rampant today. I really like your poem -- very wise and instructive. Art |

I remember my father saying more than half a century ago -- change is the very scheme of life. I have built on that idea, and have gained so much by it. Again, I appreciate your poem. Thanks, Art |
