I sat in my silence

• Reminiscing the past
• Grieving my loss
• A decade has passed
• I keep returning to nature to fill the void
• And then as I walk the dry grass on a silent afternoon
• reflecting, reminiscing the past
• Welcomed with the warmth and an open embrace of birds chirping
• I could see not a single one
• they are of different color, shapes and size
• Hidden but offer me a word of solace ,cheering me up with a their warm embrace
• I stay still, in all my humility, accept it with courtesy
• offering gratitude, make a move, paving way for the New.

As I stood here, deeply reflecting under my Copper Pod tree, sharing with you the wisdom it bestowed upon me, besides the poetry which I have already cited above.

Wisdom from My Copper Pod tree;

—As the leaves falls, how easy it is to let go, and embrace the reality as is, instead of fighting it for a distant dream.

—To offer generously what one has, regardless of how many leaves fall!

—To stand in dignity with humility, in every season ,than to find and hide in lame reasons.

—To accept that everything living, Non-living has its time determined and it will work as per the course of its time.

—To stay open, you never know what’s waiting for you is just round the corner.

Happy New year 2025

With Prayers and Best wishes for the coming year.
