A tall tree in the wind

I swing and sway
Between challenges
Like the April* weather in March
Spring is finding a difficult time to start
Lost my dreams
In every new day’s heart

I swing and sway
Between ideas
Like the rain when the sun shines
Budding trees are finding a difficult time to start
Lost my wishes
In every year passed

I swing and sway
Between seasons
Like the push and pull of the tides
Sleeping bulbs are finding a time difficult to start
Lost my stories
In every new teller’s mouth
