Iva Hotko Autumn Thoughts
Tuesday, 1 October, 2024
Some find my death beautiful in all the colours of autumn bringing joy to grey days. Others find it sad - the sign of long nights in winter's embrace. The fall banished fear out of my pores. The feeling of helplessness while being carried by the wind opened my mind for a different reality. Acceptance is not giving in or giving up it's choosing another path where my heart's longing and my peace of mind will be found. The decay commands all, and that fact cannot be denied or ignored. I will become dust sooner than some, and when the wind will cradle me in its arms I will be reaching for the stars. I have to leave it all behind - the chattering of the birds, and the warm kiss of sunshine - the tender touch of a ladybird, and a wet sensation of a raindrop - the joy of a sunrise and sadness of a cloudy night denying me the magic of starlight. I have to let it all go for it was never mine to own. I am ready now to say goodbye, welcoming the last sleep and the darkness that will turn into light ~ Iva
