I left in Autumn
Not the end of summer life but the beginning of a new season, without pain or strife
Moving forward, moving on
A change to be sure but not gone
I am here in each fall leaf that drifts with splendid color, laying at rest, gently on the lawn
Saying look
I am here, in another form
In the evening and the dawn
Oh with the winter freeze and the deep frost of winter night
Cling to the knowledge that I am free and bathed in warmth and have taken flight
When the breeze of spring lifts the cold and bathes the earth
Know that I too have had rebirth
Know that you are never alone for I am here like the seasons and will go on and on
And when the kiss of the sun stirs and warms the flowers of spring and welcomes the buds anew
I am here and smiling upon your days and things anew
It is as it should be
Life changes and the seasons too
Like the spring flower, I go on and on and think of you
Waiting, learning
Do not be in a hurry to find me
For just as the seasons will come and go
I will sail through time until we are one and you are not alone
