The Silent Change
I am the leap of faith,
The never-ending fall into oblivion,
My path uncertain, a sudden wind
Changes my path, I am the lost
Trinket of years past, full of good
Memories, cherished by many,
I am a rock under the ocean,
Impacted by the slightest wave,
Morphing into new shapes, a boot,
A moon, a symbol of the unknown,
Of uncertainty, but also of promise,
The sacred promise of adventures,
I am the minute shift in your life,
For better or for worse, the normal
Is no longer, I am the black ominous ice under
The clean white snow, hidden from plain view,
You never see me coming, I am the silent change.
I am the leap of faith,
The never-ending fall into oblivion,
My path uncertain, a sudden wind
Changes my path, I am the lost
Trinket of years past, full of good
Memories, cherished by many,
I am a rock under the ocean,
Impacted by the slightest wave,
Morphing into new shapes, a boot,
A moon, a symbol of the unknown,
Of uncertainty, but also of promise,
The sacred promise of adventures,
I am the minute shift in your life,
For better or for worse, the normal
Is no longer, I am the black ominous ice under
The clean white snow, hidden from plain view,
You never see me coming, I am the silent change.

Hey Jeremy
This is the 7th time I am going to try to post something to you. Anyways... This poem reminds me of something a family friend used to say. He would call people "snake in the grass", or a "village idiot". Basically, he referred to things and people that sneak up on you, and are unexpected. The Silent Change gives me the idea that something has effected you or can effect you, without you even thinking about it cautiously. I like that this makes me think. Good work!
