Expectancy

So how do you explain it
And portray it as it is
So others can see as you do

All of the days of your life
Charted on a spinning wheel
Whose cycle will soon renew

What was learned, what was lost
On moments so horridly true
Quite simply, an alternate point of view

Butterflies flutter through this scene
A squirrel is digging for his food
And memories flow with all that you knew

What, again, is this all about
That others may need to know
What do these words construe

That no matter what happens
In a life wrought with sorrows
The next era will soon be new

so true
