The Spring and Autumn
Nettie Bozanich
It’s the living and the dying,
all caught up in cycles
we think we can break
or change or mold to fit
ourselves. Who’s it all about?
Is it about us? About our survival?
About our living? About our happiness?
Lay it all down and we will find
ourselves – our true selves,
glowing and growing in the
edges of light and divine mystery.
It’s the grace of this moment,
the mercy of this era,
the dying, the living,
the breathing again.
It’s the possibility, the truth,
the poverty of wealth,
the wealth of poverty,
the acceptance, the withering,
the blooming, the joy.
It’s the seasons of this life,
the seasons of His plan,
the seasons of loss,
the seasons of glorious revival,
welcoming Spring again,
welcoming Autumn again.
