    There's a season for beginnings
    When the world is fresh and new,
    When we shape our dreams of all
    The things we plan and hope to do.

    A season for maturing
    When we think and work and grow,
    And a season for the harvesting of
    All we've come to know.

    And each successive season
    Grows richer than the last,
    As treasures of the present
    Add to memories of the past.
