Title: Let Them Bloom \| Submitted by: dswain \| Written by: Doug Swain \| Style: Pastoral

Let them bloom Let them grow These flowers change They come, and they go. A walk to remember A scent like no other The paths, fields, woods and trails They seem to never change But manage to change me Up and down Forward and back Left and right Whichever way its pleasure tends* really This is the nature of nature And ten years of time Stands as a test to the lack of change Yet all of the change Which I try and think of as me. A rabbit dashes across the street As a midnight moon ignites the ground I sometimes wonder How much different I am Everything, all alive Human, rodent, plant We're not all so much different We sit in the sands of time And wait to see these changes If mother earth chooses to bring them A thing, I'll never understand. Inspired from The Grateful Dead, Franklin's Tower*
