I know its a bit early but it seemed to match kats thought.. CYCLE
The night weeps gentle tears for the dying day leaves in mourning again the season of dying upon us almost without warning seems only yesterday it was flowers all the way promising a bright tomorrow in its sparkling April showers and now blackberries, in black, burying the year a breath at a time.
Harvest moon and first frosts Octobers icy breath announces Funeral games for Samhain Christians "All Hallows" but its worth is known to ancient Celts burying the Sun like gold 'till Spring can summon it forth with Beltane fires.
But now rain, punctuating the summer comma, colon: stop. Quiet and unrelenting at the edge of thought time, bleeding down the window, invites the eye back into the past.
To dwell on how things were or might have, or might, still be. Resist diversion, Time is now, and now is all you have and rain is only rain, and Autumn glorious and real and here.
