I had bid on Randy's auction a couple of weeks ago and won.
For the winner, there would be a composition of a poem of that persons choice.
Me being the winner, I had asked Randy to compose a poem about "Changes".
I was touched deeply by his words and I thought I would let all my friends know what a
great poet he is and how his words flow beautifully through poetry!
Thank you Randy!!
Changes
Things are changing everyday
We can not stop it, there is no way
We have to learn, to accept
That some of those changes are for the best
We love our children with all our heart
But one day soon we’ll have to part
Our children get older and move away
We hope and wish that they would stay
But when the time comes for them to leave home
Just remember that they have grown
You have done it and so have I
So there’s no need for us to cry
They have to live life on their own
To appreciate what they had at home
And once they leave and realize this
You’ll see that they will come back quick
They’ll come and visit and fill you in
With all the new things they feel within
So when they spread their wings and fly
Remember that it’s not goodbye
