Change
From a seed springs forth a plant
Reaching out to the sun
Branching out with vigour
Into a full-grown tree
A tender, helpless child
Grows into a teenager
Then matures into an adult
Grows old and dies one day
A tiny caterpillar
Nibbling on green leaves
Slowly transforms into a pupa
Until it breaks free into a butterfly
Seasons change
Plants, animals and humans change
Day changes to night
Change is all around us
Let us remain centred
While riding this wave of change
Soaring high into the sky like the redwood tree
Keeping its roots firm underground
