Good Reading...thought provoking

There are things that we never want to let go of, people we never want to
leave behind. But keep in mind that letting go isn’t the end of the
world, it’s the beginning of a new life.

Preparation For Things To Come
by Alison Stormwolf

There are still some races to run
For a noisy spirit untied my feet
Hog tied from years of crying
And my eyes once sharp as eagles
Now see with new softer light
Into the shadows that would take me

There is still a sun in the sky
Though it is setting through
Such beautiful autumn leaves
Yet is my spirit still reviving
Laughing and crying at the shedding of
Worn out greenery,
Softly exposing…
Naked branches, naked thoughts
How many more seasons
Will I see
With these eyes?

A few more valleys to travel
A few more journeys...
Come close now, my helpers
For I am not finished yet
Though there is a new weariness...

Like reading the same old story for too long
Come, help me turn the page
Hibernation calls me, to regenerate
All that is in me
For A Terrible Winter is coming to Earth
And there will be much
To be done.
