Linda Franklin - Changes

Whether we want it to or not
It seems that things are forever changing.
Changes can be big or they can be very small.
Our thoughts change with the direction of the wind
Or so it seems.

Styles change from month to month,
Even our ideas change from day to day or year to year
What we once thought was so important
Is now something we can’t even remember

When we were young we wouldn’t eat some foods
But now we can’t get enough of them
Even our sense of humor changes from time to time
What was once funny may now not be

Some friends may last a lifetime
While others for just a moment in time.
Some changes are thrust upon us
While others we make ourselves.

They say that nothing is permanent
But that I don’t believe
Because no matter what changes
My love for you stays the same.

Linda Franklin
