Transcript

The veil is thin,

The days grow still,

A balance held in perfect will.

Grateful hearts in silence bow,

To what is here,

To what is now.

The air is crisp,

The light grows low,

A gentle call to let things go.

In quiet gratitude we stand,

Holding the shift with open hands.

Leaves descend in golden grace,

A quiet rhythm fills this space.

No grasping here,

No fight for more,

Just trust in what the seasons store.

We honour the fruits that summer gave,

The sun's warm light,

The harvests saved.

Each gift received,

Each lesson sown,

A whisper of the truth we've known.

Summer's gifts now rest behind,

We thank them all and clear the mind.

Thank them all and clear the mind,

For every joy and every pain has passed like sunlight after rain.

We now turn within and know,

That what we are,

No winds can blow.

For in the silence seeds are laid,

Preparing for the winter's shade.

Letting go,

We feel the grace of life unfolding in its place,

No holding tight,

No need to strive.

For what dies falls,

But all's alive.

The cold will come,

But we will see,

That even then all things shall be.

A single pulse through frost and flame,

One consciousness,

One love,

Forever the same.
