Workshop # 1

The Autumn saw 
my green body turn yellow 
and with the flow of winds
I moved on towards 
my new journey.

The tree, my father 
having nurtured me
standing majestically  
and silently
did not hold me any more.

I had come of age 
capable to embrace  
the dew drops 
and dance with
the blades of grass

Eventually 
to become dust 
and dissolve 
into the eternal embrace
of Mother earth

Is this dissolution  
Death or Life?
Perhaps,  
The path that we seek
... Nirvana
