Grieve with Autumn

Dance all of your Summer aches and pain away with her

Keep dancing your way through winter

Let the snow fall on your cries

 Let the snow bury your burden

Allow them to melt with the snow angels

Let it all perish

Don't hold any of it back with you

With the right breeze, Spring will lift you up

Push all of your brand new desires and dreams from the ground up

Oh yes, allow yourself some brand new dreams

Don't hope, just hold sight of the faith you have sown during Winter 

Step aside and make space for yourself

Let the old ones depart from you

Let them flow down through your healing tears and sweat

The Autumn rain and winter storm took them away

Let them run deep down into the ground

They will water and season your new burgeoning desires

They will mold and sharpen your vision

They will burst you into a new bloom

And behold, life becomes you
