The Leaves Turn

Kurt Philip Behm

Growing simpler with

    each passing year

 

The leaves turn

     and my mind releases

 

Freeing what it’s taken

    a lifetime to acquire

 

Freeing what only this moment

    can understand

 

 (Grantham New Hampshire January, 2012)

    I guess as one gets older, is time to free oneself from the cumbersome things that weigh one down. I enjoyed reading it slowly to get the reflective message imbued in it.

  • Kurt Philip Behm

    Thanks, it's those epiphanous moments that
    create real joy!

    Kurt,

    ā€˜The leaves turn
    and my mind releasesā€™

    Love those aha momentsā€¦
    those mental enlightenments.
