accepting solitude
might be
a way out of
isolation
morning mist
covering the world
to let mysteries penetrate
even if only a little bit deeper
into the core
where being unable
does not necessarily mean
being useless
lightning unloading
the atmosphere of tension
dead leaves dancing
on the road
while the body is striving
to find its balance
within a new centre of
gravity
having spent most of one’s life
trying to make oneself useful
changing into
being useful
can be a painful experience
in the literal sense of the word
being overburdened
can be considered
a state of mind
as no one is being overburdened
by life
though one might easily come to believe
the responsibility carried to be
compulsory
a single bird is singing
in the darkness
having forgotten
or perhaps unable to see
that autumn has coloured the tress
perhaps celebrating a soul
who is to be
celebrated today
what a relief
to undo a knot
by a simple excuse
where an excuse was
the least one could do
to bring righteousness
back into a stagnated situation
allowing life to flow freely
where it was never meant to do
anything else
receiving as a gift
what one believed to be
out of reach
is a gesture to observe
a blessing to be counted
golden tender autumn
gently moving towards
what can be considered
the end of another cycle
or the beginning of a new
an invitation once again
to reverse
making an inappropriate choice¨
in circumstances
which did not really leave possibilities
for anything else
is not an excuse to
make inappropriate choices
for the rest of one’s life
