Colors change
And so do I,
As you continue to stand
By my side.
The squirrels and the birds
Prepare again,
Prepared to spend
Another season in slumber,
And so do I,
As you continue to lay
By my side.
The clouds feel shadier
And the breeze
Blows cooler,
As the sky smiles,
And so do I,
As you continue to fly
By my side.
This is my journey
