Oh Autumn...My Love!




So it's that time of the year again...when life would soon start to change color...when winds would start to chill...when leaves would fall to the ground and birds would fly away, shying away from the gold times...the dark times...

This time of the year holds a certain kind of sadness to it....a certain kind of sorrow for the departed...the air reminisces about lost lovers...broken hearts...unsaid words... forgotten promises and unveiled truths... And yet there is something about this time of the year that attracts me to it...it calls on to me...the sadness that exists in the very atmosphere seems magical to me...the winds that hold the echo of what once was draw me towards them...it is this time of the year that finds me playing back all the events of my life over and over again like the reel of a favorite old movie...where every scene is lovingly remembered and yet I yearn to watch it over and over again...

This time finds me peacefully quiet...happy in the solitary confines of my mind...it is a time when long walks are enjoyed in silence...and the pages of a book become my favorite source of warmth...

To those around me I seem to be brooding over lost things...but that is not so...I lovingly reminisce over them...assuring them that they may have been lost....but they certainly have not been forgotten...and once that is done I take those reels of past store them away at the back of my mind again....ready to come back to the present and live here and now...making new memories...and learning new lessons...but only till another autumn beckons me...calls on to me to live the magic once again....to fill my heart with the love I hold for the past and to re-live what once was...for that is the joy of the lovely autumn time...

    If only I could really explain how much am I in love with this. I could relate to it, and probably thats the best part. And somehow, its giving me hope. Thank you for such a wonderful piece of writing. Have read it for the sixth time, and its in my favorites now. I'll keep on reading it.
