Transition Transition is a local train With sorted obstacles and pain. Some can be a joyous ride Perhaps the alter with a bride Transition can be a thought An idea that you have bought Or perhaps a change of way That brings more sunshine to your day. Some are brought about by sight It’s called the seeing of the light Some are dogmas left behind A weight of yesterday in mind Some are just simple concessions Brought about by a confession. And some are just in growing up The precious of a buttercup But I believe transitions bend To suit the time until the end. |

Enjoyed as always But the stanza: Some are just simple concessions Brought about by a confession. And some are just in growing up The precious of a buttercup Just doesn’t sit with me as well as the rest Probably because of the youthful image of the Buttercup, and those childish dandelions (which just became weeds as I grew up) I might rewrite it Some are just simple concessions Brought about by a confession. And some are just in the growing The precious views of new knowing. Call it not critique But an different view inspired Gloom |

Seymour - I think I have taken this train more than once or twice. But each ride was a lesson on this earth school. Enjoyed. Chris "Hope" is the thing with feathers- |

Interesting concept of life being the ride of a train. Very unique. I think that we can all identify with some aspect of this idea. I enjoyed the read and I thought the piece was well written. Very good. Peace. ----Lukey-D---- |

Yes, transitions bend, blowing in the wind of time, in the preciousness of the youthful buttercup and the commonness of the dandelion...... Gaining beauty and humility, we always changing, becoming all we are meant to be. Warmest regards, Pat ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. |

And then you have those of us who resist change... even when we know it's for good? *G* I liked this very much, Seymour... and wish your transitions to be smooth ones. *S* |

(smiles) And transitions are such beautiful things and they are certainly not horizontal, for changes have their special freedom of expression! (sigh) This is wonderful, sweet friend, I love this read, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
