The golden leaves fall,
fearing not the decay of
a coming winter.
Death is essential
to the renewal of life –
All will spring again.
If each in nature
can feel this simple rhythm,
so can humans too.
Why do we resist?
Our minds overshadow the
truth of our being.
But the fall leaves know,
they show us that we too will
green the tree anew.

VJ, I’m sending you a big hug. Truly. I miss my parents. When you are finished with taking care of the serious talk, I hope you will share some joyful time with her today, too.
