"To float like a leaf on the autumn wind"


Poem Artwork

Autumn Leaves and Commonday Miracles

It turns out life is simpler than I thought
Commonday miracles bloom around me
Hope on the wind but somehow I forgot
The only way to live free is just be
And take no thought for anything but now

What is my place in the universe
And is it for me to say?
Can I make my place better or worse
From one to another day?

The answer always comes to me somehow
That letting go is what to do
To float like a leaf on the autumn wind
It seems not up to me nor you

We autumn leaves ought not be caught and pinned
But sail the day with a sense of play
As into dust at dusk we pass
Along with summer's waving grass
Under soft snow as we fall away

Eternity begins for us today

You manage to grasp the best Mother Nature has and paint a picture worthy of a frame to share with us all. Well done Steve.

Beautiful write. And if we let the leaves lie under the snow they become fertilizer in the spring. Another wonderful example of ressurection.
God Bless,
Lew

This sure does make you feel like you are floating after a long day.

Beautiful eternity today.. I also feel we have commonday miracles when one thinks of the birth of children, flowers blooming, the small things common are all miracles... This is a beautiful and inspiring poem....

Light & Peace,
Joselyn

A way to use your mind for silent communication. Speaking about the methods in the book I have used since a young age. 21st Century learning. I also have a GoFundMe page to ask for funds so I can research with other people and add their experiences
