Hello and Goodbye

Here we go again

The world slowly spins

But time plays on and on

I grow old with the trees.

I want to fly with the birds and the bees.

I raise my hands for a touch of the suns rays!

My feet long to touch the waters

Rocking back and forth; 

I am unsteady

I feel heavy.

All that I know is disappearing!

Tears won't help.

Neither will a yelp.

I can't stop time.

Even if I tried.  

Watch me. . .

Know me. . .

Before I leave,

Before I come home,

Before I die. 

I want to say hello and goodbye.
