waking each morning is an opportunity to start each day fresh
to find our stillness we often require forces outside our control
slowly over time nature begins to reclaim that which we have made
the first window frost . signals a powerful change . to embrace or fear
a half frozen pond . tells the duck, it’s almost time . to be moving on
waves are reactions to an outside force, the lake does not create them
like a switch was thrown . the chilly november sky . left fall for winter
next year at this time the trees and the water still won’t set their clocks back
autumn colors burn hottest in the week before we set our clocks back
to live in today is to understand the path is just the journey
