Awaiting

 

Neckarrems (Germany), November 2021

First moon in Advent,

a meeting with the calm

of patient waiting,

of a guide leading you

to the peace within yourself.

Cold landscape in the Fall,

almost Winter already,

which warms up your heart

and quietens the rumor

of ice and fears.

First Sunday in waiting,

only three more to go,

for the long cold

to bid the night goodbye,

for the day to reconquer

from the darkness the light.
