RISE UP

Autumn in the Weald by Philip Dodson
RISE UP

Like a fire the leaves rise swirling like flames
The wind catches them like sails at sea
The swirl of colour as they leap their final dance
The breath of change is upon us all
Autumn is here we are approaching the cold

Warm our hearts with the rising that nature brings
Warm our hearts with the beauty of it all
Warm our hearts with what we have already
Warm our hearts with the connection to mother nature
Warm our hearts and dance with leaves

The fire of autumn will die as winter comes
Don't wait for what might be
Rise up now with the wind
Like a phoenix from the ashes
One last dance, one last hurrah, one last leap
Don't wait for winter...rise up now and dance

Autumn is another part of our life cycle

Falling leaves by Philip Dodson

Life is a cycle, not a continuous thing.

Our bodies are constantly renewing.

All things are temporary.

Autumn is now upon us in the northern hemisphere and the leaves turn brown and fall off the trees.

This process is all part of the constant renewal and transformation that we as humans are part of too.

We see ourselves as separate from nature when we are nature along with all other things.

Welcome all changes as they are part of the ongoing ever-changing journey that is life.

Our parts of our life will have a spring, summer, autumn and winter and then it will start again.
