An Egg Is An Egg
An egg is an egg
Until it hatches.
And then it is a chick.
A branch is a branch
Until it breaks.
And then it is a stick.
Nothing stays the same.
Everything can change.
A seed is a seed
Until it is sown.
And then it is a flower.
A block is a block
Until there are many.
And then they become a tower.
Nothing stays the same.
Everything can change.
Water is water
Until it is brewed.
And then it becomes tea.
You are you
Until I come.
And then you became “we.“
Nothing stays the same.
Everything can change.
The yard is green
Until it snows.
And then it becomes white.
Day is dayUntil sunset.
And then it is night.
Nothing stays the same.
Everything can change.
This baby was a baby
Until he grew.
And now he is a boy.
But you can always be a baby.
You will always be my baby….
(from Mcgrawhill text book for the first graders in U.S.A)

I like this poem. It is simple but it express the ever changing world around us very well. Nothing can stay the same..
