October
"I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers."
As the fierce sunshine turns mild and mellow..
As the green gives way to shades of red and yellow...
As the restless crisp foliage tries hard to hold on to glorious summer memories..
As they wrestle and rustle to cling on to their trees..
The bittersweet and nostalgic October skies..
The gentle yet dry breeze that blows away the crackling leaves..
The nip in the air turns harbinger of times to come.
Just like the quintessential mother's heart that knows when to love and when to let go of her loved one..
Like the incomplete love story that made way for a more worthwhile and lasting new dawn..
Autumn 'leaves' us with many lessons. The need to cherish what one has and not take anything for granted; the importance of a 'fall' before a rise; the ability to let go of anything that doesn't serve a joyful purpose anymore; wholeheartedly welcoming changes of any kind; trusting the magic of new beginnings and optimistically looking forward to good tidings in the future.
Here's looking forward to our very own brief little Indian autumn with it's pleasant weather, the festivities, food, fun and frolic, albeit in its unique 'socially distanced 2020' reload version. Cheers!
Excellent. Just read and reread every word to soak it in. I understand the depth of every single word. This makes me await all the socially distantced festivities personal and general.....
