Month: August 2021

dying off

is all natural

for nature

dying off as a natural process

for new life to occur

autumn will soon

be here

there can be something soothing

about darkness

a protection against

the reality revealed by light

a certain comfort

in the sensation of

invisibility

lamentations are

just as crucial for the inner balance

as are exaltations

in their proper time

every situation is difficult to overcome

when we are fighting against

ourselves

though the challenge might not be

to win the battle

but to stop fighting against

ourselves

solving a problem

can be of great satisfaction

yet

solving a problem also means

creating space for another one

to occur

grey can also be

soothing

while gently sinking in

to deeper layers of the pain

only to discover

that under each stone of burning pain

is a blessing to be found

being speechless

is not necessarily the same thing

as keeping silence

a glimpse of the moon

to celebrate an ancestor

bringing to the surface

memories

which nourished the imaginary world

of a child

when time has come

to surrender

there is no longer anything

to resist

only a reality to acknowledge

while learning to live with

what was considered

inconceivable

a gentle wind

playing with the treetops

a stratified sky

of pink and blue

withdrawing the yoke of suffering

is to be done

with care
