Not Alone In A Changing World
Wildlife creates a comforting symphony
I close my eyes and listen as worries fly away from me
The breeze brushes my hair and lets my heart soar
I go to sleep every night excited to experience it once more
The magic and calm that is seen through a window
Seems to open a door through which happiness can stream in through
It is easy to feel like you are alone
But simple to fix if you look outside and see how much has grown
Flowers are opening and so are our hearts
Apart but not alone because in this global effort we are all important parts
-Samantha Muller
