Change
By R. Cary
Shifting perspectives flourish beneath
Our moving sense of self
With age a changing identity
Towards our life’s purpose
From our youthful aesthetic ventures
To our benign care for ourselves
As the years grow
Or when children are here
We learn what giving ourselves really is
Perspectives shining in angles throughout
Our lives within our evolving selves
New lenses, a varying shimmer
Of the bending mirrors our days endure
Evolving into eventuality, as we all seek
Transcendence in knowing at least today
This is who we are and who I am today
Is just right and tomorrow I will say
This is me today letting my changing self
Grow, know, and in time what we all want
Become a human being who loves ourselves
End
Change
