"This day will never come again, and anyone who fails to eat and drink and taste and smell it will never have it offered to him again in all eternity. The sun will never shine as it does today... You must play your part and sing a song, one of your best."

May you know that absence is alive with hidden presence, that nothing is ever lost or forgotten. May the absences in your life grow full of eternal echo. May you sense around you the secret Elsewhere where the presences that have left you dwell.

She talks to the moon in the language of trees,ancient and rooted, the ways of sap. The moon talks back in the language of moons, shadow and light, the ways of water. The stones listen
and translate what they hear into the slow stillness of stones.

Climate changed quickly to cold and the trees burst into color, the reds and yellows you can’t believe. It isn’t only color but a glowing, as if the leaves gobbled the light of the autumn sun and then released it slowly. There’s a quality of fire
in these colors. Steinbeck

“We can change, evolve. We can choose to move like water rather than molded like clay. Life spirals in, then spirals out on any given day. It does not have to be one way, one truth, one voice. Nor does love have to be all or nothing.” - Terry Tempest Williams #BloomScrolling #Nature #Poetry

Up that staircase
the moon has built
Her light through
trees and rocks
All memories
bathing in poetry

Let's go out and feel the night
On this Harvest Moon

"At no other time, than autumn, does the earth let itself be inhaled in one smell, the ripe earth; bitter where it borders on taste, and more honey-sweet where you feel it touching the first sounds. Containing depth within itself, and darkness."- Rilke #BloomScrolling #Nature #Autumn
