Fact! - Impact!

   A river never flows direct it always has a bend               Another year passes and some things come to an end

As seasons change, traditionally, the world is changing too

These things impact, and that’s a fact, on everything we do

We may find there is something more when we are laid to rest 

That everything learned through our lives prepares us for a test 

But somehow if enlightenment comes through to let us know 

These things impact, and that’s a fact, as living life will show 

The natural disasters and the lessons that they bring 

The power with which they educate conceals a painful sting 

The world is not invincible, and even less are we 

The deep impact, of this real fact we very soon may see 

People come into our lives and that effects a change 

Perhaps they’ll stay, we cannot say, but life will rearrange 

It’s what we do within that measured allocate of time 

That will impact, and that’s a fact, on you, and yours and mine
