Each Season of Living

Each Season of Living 
By Michelle Morris 
29/09/2024

The wind picks up 
Changes to the season 
From Summer to Autumn
The raining of leaves 

Gold and orange
Yellow and red
Release what's unneeded 
Trees teach us this lesson 

The temperatures fall
The Earth slows down her pace
We breathe in the crispness 
Of clean air in open spaces

We take stock of our lives
We cuddle and rest
We humans need to slow down 
To conserve our energy 

In Winter things die
We experience endings 
Nature teaches us to accept
Death is not the enemy 

Snow and quiet
Stillness and peace 
Purity in thoughts 
In words and deeds

When Spring comes around 
We're ready to bloom
To expand our lives
Our hearts and rooms

We welcome new life 
We learn and we grow 
We know what it feels like
To have Joy and to Glow

We embrace the shimmers 
We accept the Universe's pace
We know we have Angels
To bless us with Heaven's Grace

All that Happiness 
All those Memories 
Zen-like focus on our Gifts
Moments of Peace 

The contentment we feel
Emotions inspiring Light
For we are all Warriors
In the Quest for what's Right

For when Summer arrives 
Our Harvest is revealed 
The bounties from Nature
Blessings are yielded 

These cycles continue 
Our Earth turns again and again 
For each year that passes 
Brings us Wisdom and Grace 

As we connect to the Earth
And embrace Nature each day 
We'll gather moments of pleasure 
And become at one with her ways

The gains and the losses 
The twists and the turns 
Every single creature 
Has its moment to learn 

A lifetime of authentic living
If we commit to our Path 
For we are infinite Souls
And our knowledge is vast

We are all connected 
And Nature knows best
God's eternal Wisdom 
Guidance and Blessings 

Know that you're special 
Know that Nature needs you
As you always need Nature 
To reveal Life's Truth

So when the wind picks up 
And the storms come in 
You're stronger and wiser 
Each Season of Living
