You start young and small
Moving through life as a river moves through the woods,
As the river laughs and plays.
With time you grow,
Gaining power and strength.
But on the inside you are still young and small.
People all see you differently.
Some appreciate you, admire you.
Others will step all over you without a care.
This makes you feel sad,
Makes you feel young and small.
Over time, you learn more about the world.
You grow up, become wiser.
You learn more about yourself.
The river inside of you becomes wise.
After a certain point there is a fork in the river.
You must decide which way to flow.
Time to make a big decision.
Do you follow a path of growth
Or do you wish to stay young and small?
There is no right choice.
As much as you wish to stay young and small,
Perhaps it is time to move on,
Go where the river takes you,
Even if the river cries along the way.
It’s time to move on
And grow into the strong river you know you are.
