sometimes the flower . is the path to something more . not the end result
it may be a while . once a decision is made . ‘til it can be changed
with every change . what is carried from the past . is the new normal
an overnight change . often comes with a warning . and comes on slowly
when conditions change . quickly, all too many still . ignore the warnings
nothing will repeat . even though it seems that way . something’s different
in changing seasons . it’s easier to disguise . personal changes
when least expected . things can take hold that become . difficult to change

between now and then so many new leaves have turned and melted away
