Your Autumn

Summer’s turned to Autumn
Green leaves fade to gold.
The only sparkles you’ve left
Winking by your toes,
Fading into paper –
Paper skeletons.
Monsoon rains from Heaven
Wash away their bones.
You walk into the forest,
Veil your face in shadows.
Once yours was much joy,
Now there’s only sadness.
Step out of the shadows
You look better in the light.
Push ahead through the branches,
They’re begging you to stay.
Dry your eyes, they must be sore
Underneath this perfect sky.
From your Winter must come Spring.
Grow through with the crocuses
In bright yellow/purple riots.
Stand tall and show your smile again,
Enjoy the daybreak.

Ho, dear... So beautiful; these are the perfect words a mother would like to her from her loving child.
Good work my friend.

This has so many different undertones of emotions in them. Delightfully beautiful may she find her sunshine in the spring once again.

Dom .. this was fabulous. Completely and entirely
moving. I agree with missyme, your love and concern
for your mother is evident within these words, and is
painfully touching to read and feel.
I adore the last stanza .. it is enormously inspiring.
Beautiful work, Dom. Simply beautiful.

| Indeed this is a dedication from a son who must have been born very wise. To be offered such compassion from a son is such a tribute to what she has taught you. Great and masterful art. |
