Fresh

She walks out into the fresh air, and breathes in life
The streets scattered with orange leaves
She knows she can look forward to this for a month
The trees dropping small pieces of color
Branches holding on when the wind blows, showing unwavering strength
Chimney smoke pouring out of houses brings her back to the beginning

The good 'ole days at the beginning
Her veins full of new life
Inside her body she could feel brave strength
It seems as though the bad things in her life go, just leave
Bringing all the new shades of happy color
Back to her cheeks, never fading month after month

And as the years go by, month after month
She finds herself at another new beginning
The trees budding, bright green color
Spring brings happiness and new life
All around, the trees full of flowers, leaves
Mother Nature shows that beauty, is strength

Showing her that she too has unwavering strength
Doing what she has to, to stay ahead each month
Even as the good things goes, just leaves
Giving her yet another new beginning
Another chance to live her life
And give the world some much needed color

The brightness that she brings, the color
Gives the world a chance to show true strength
To show the rest that we love life
Like she does, and after every month
We give ourselves a change, a youthful beginning
And we make the good stay and the bad leave

This time, it's the good and bad together that let her leave
And she paints the world with the colors
Of her past, and shows them there's always a new beginning
And that hardships give us unwavering strength
Like the tress have in the windy month
Sheltering all those around them, giving them life

So at the fresh beginnings of every month
Let the past leave bright colors, so joyful
That everyone knows the strength of your only life.
