Midlife Transformation

Transformation

TRANSFORMATION

Transformation has its place,
Don’t get all upset;
By definition all things change,
We’re just not ready yet.

Transformation comes I think,
Often quicker than a wink;
Or years may pass before I see
Changes that occur in me.

Growing up or getting old
Requires change or so I’m told;
Compassion when applied to pain 
Transforms losses into gain.

Transformation equals change,
It’s mind or matter rearranged
And challenges when squarely met
Leave no room for past regret.

In the future I shall see
Just what has become of me.
Here I stand a single soul
Transformed by life as it unfolds.
