Fall into Beauty and Peace

A path with yellow leaves on the ground.
 
We awake to outer chill, the temperature changes and Fall’s down Shifting the warmth of a sunny day’s crown.
The leaves Fall, they adorn the ground,
Like brilliant vibrant crystals that glow and abound.
The carefree days of summer’s glow
Fall into inner focus on the earth below.
We move inside to rest and find peace
And support the calm that brings us much ease.
The Jewish month Falls from heavenly attention
Without a holiday in sight our focus is quiet retention.
We Fall into comfort into restful repose
To rebuild our souls, with contemplation, the inside glows.
A time to look within our inner landscape
To our hearts desires so nourishment can take shape.
The Divine Falls below into earth’s ever presence
So Shekhinah can shine in nature and maintain Her omnipresence.
