Life Goes On

I listened to the doves fly around in the distance near the rising sun

I saw the old trees stand tall against the windy breeze

I thought to myself, life goes on, let’s move on

I observed the warm grass welcome the falling leaves onto the ground

I smelt the daisies bloom in the distance

I thought to myself, life goes on, let’s move on

I gazed at my grandpa helping the sun shine into the sparkling ocean

I heard the waves peacefully crash onto the sand

I thought to myself, life goes on, let’s move on

I saw my grandpa paint the slay as it set while the moon arose

I glimpsed at him shining through the twinkling stars

And finally, I heard him say,

“Life goes on, let’s move on”
