The Walk

By Ellitia Ra

A change is coming

As summer turns to fall

The breeze starts to dance

With the flowers as they sway

The leaves fall from the trees

And land on the grass

Some friends tend to step on them

To hear the crunchy sound

Longed to smell the salty air

Of the summer sea

But all I can taste is muddy land

Which is more bitter than you think

Feeling so empty yet excited

To see change

Feel change

Hear change

And to help the change

Be a development

A development that I can walk along

To reach my destiny
