Pumpkin

Pumpkin

Indian summer flirts with us all.
dripping with color and tears of farewell 
to seasons past. 
brisk mornings and humid afternoons, 
cool shivery nights with brilliant skies. 

A dubious spell of time,
somehow, neither there nor there
a lesson in unpreparedness
and the unexpected
Just here...


A field of emerald green grasses
replete with the glory of a long summer’s work, somehow

gave birth to a pumpkin,
Fruition incarnate.

Manifesting before my eyes 
in orange splendor 
atop a velvet cushion,
its sweeping curves
Pregnant with past and future.
 

Someday gracefully decomposing 
to reveal the white seeds of becoming. 
Now, bursting at once with being, 

existence and death.
Filling us with life and hope...



Breathing in I am aware of my being
Breathing out I encounter this moment
 

Breathing in I am full of life
Breathing out I feel able

Breathing in I know what I have to give
Breathing out I cast my seeds.
 

Breathing in I am here
Breathing out I am fulfilled


May this content benefit you, those you love, and all sentient beings, everywhere.
