I always look forward to the Fall, because…

I always look forward to the Fall, because…

Autumn leaves don’t fall, they soar…
Shedding quiet tears of joy…
Fluttering with the wind…
Releasing themselves back into the earth.

Such simple souls…
Look at the color in their cheeks and the brightness of their eyes…
Naked as the day they were born…
Gazing beyond the mountains into new worlds.

How many can I catch before they hit the ground?
My slumbering spirit suddenly awakening…
I don’t have the proper words to describe the feeling…
It’s just some kind of perfection.

If you are like me all your life you have always been homesick…
For that life beyond life…
The doorway has a special combination…
One turn to the left Simplicity, back to right Patience and finally back to the left Compassion.

Learn from the autumn leaves…
They don’t live in a world of mazes and twisted paths…
They are born and live beautifully with the wind and the stars…
And then return to the source of all being.

I love you,

Annie
