lightening our darkness
is in itself
an act of peace
being given the grace
to live life
in life’s own rhythm
is indeed a blessing
not to be scorned
dealing with undigested emotions
is in many ways
a perfect winter occupation
though
dealing with undigested emotions
is also a delicate matter
to be handled with care
generational wounds surfacing
like the mortal remains of an independent being
who has decided to stay around
as long
as necessary
for the original wound to heal
time is doing
what the moment cannot
and for every generation
the wound decreases
yet it does seem to be
the same lingering through the branches
tenderness
is such a delicate matter
and so powerful when given
time and latitude
to work its wonders
beginning to reap
after years without end
of sowing
is indeed
something close to
unfathomable
living in the past
is just as unbalanced
as living in the future
but when past experiences
instigates fear for future events
it is nearly impossible
not to live
in a constant state of
anxiety
. . .
nearly
staying in bed
might not only be
an attitude
of laziness
just as stepping out of the race
does not necessarily mean
giving up
it can
in both cases
perfectly well be
an act of peace
sometimes silence might be
the best way to communicate
sometimes all there is left to say
is to keep quiet
sometimes
every word occurring in the mind
is harmful
yet beauty is still around
for the one who is able to see it
the world full of harmony for the one
able to hear
wind is finally blowing to the ground
the last separate leaves
leaving the world ready and settled
to receive winter
when it comes
being ready and settled is indeed
something precious
as we never know
what is to come
