By The Window

For months now I have sat by the window.

Observing the change from summer to autumn.

Leaves of green gradually changing, yellow, gold and orange.

Slowly they fall, a reminder to allow the process.

As weeks pass the ground is covered in a blanket of rustling leaves.

Squirrels and chipmunks busily gather food for the coming winter.

Early morning birdsong is quiet for now.

Flocks of geese honk, flying above in their V form heading south.

Kids board a big yellow bus and then get off again hours later.

Commuters race by…always in a hurry.

Busy lives off to school, work, shopping, everyone races by

living the life they know.

I surrender to this chair by the window.

To most it might seem mundane…boring even.

But I’m reminded of the simplicity and complexities of Life…

The slowing down and the rush of busy,

The value of family, friends, and this body,

Of Life.

By the window I find peace.

Acceptance of this body’s need to heal,

in her own time

And yet…

I am free.

Free to explore the depth of my heart.

Of my infinite love

My infinite soul

To find…

The glory of Being.

The glory of Infinity.

The Knowing I Am

So much more than this Body.

By the window I observe what I can see

And then I go within to see what I need to Know…and remember.
