wind
howling wind
stirring up
all that was left
behind
a whirlwind of emotions
turning upside down
what was believed
to be
the irrefutable order of things
ahead
the last chapter of a long book
the last page
turned
closing the book
leaving the reader with an undefined feeling
of plenitude
and emptiness
with the longing to begin all over again
and the wish to dwell upon the story
the stars are out
announcing a bright day
and another tale
ahead
*
born into light
a rare peace is to be found
in the last goodbye
where all that is left of the person
is the essence
being love
disappearance
strange things happens
when a close decide
whether willing
or unwillingly
to depart
on the last journey
vaults after vaults are opening inside
that were up to this time inaccessible
flooded by all sorts of emotions
drifting over the mind
in its anesthetised defencelessness
opening towards the mystery of loss
and the mystery of love
continuum
the birds are still singing
despite a whole day of rain
and a night without moon
the world is still turning
despite our conscious
as our unconscious efforts
to make it stop
and the light is growing
again
return
tender soft falling
steady rain
celebrating winter solstice
bringing to the surface memories
from the year that past
closing circles
liberating space
for light to grow
anew
announcements
the last cry of an owl
accompanying the first timid twittering
of small birds
announcing a new day
even if short
clouds covers the sky
the preparations for the return of the light
are solemnly slowing down
the pace of a spinning world
into peace
shooting stars
a most poetic moon
full of discretion
setting behind the naked trees
with stars waking
over its course
not to be received
is not the end of the world
all it shows is
that what was might believed to be
our guiding star
turned out to be
a shooting one
with all the hope
and excitement there s to be found
in shooting stars
their ephemerality being
a condition for their glory
possession
to possess the one and only
is rousing
all the way to the next
one and only is passing by
to give and receive love
without any claim
nor any request for possession
is a peaceful freedom
no one can ever take away
