The Burdens of the Heart
This is the season
of letting go
of the burdens of the heart.
Let every weight you carry
fall away
like colored leaves.
Let your heart
be restored to fullness.
Let your heart
be restored to openness.
Let your heart
be restored to clarity
Let your heart
be strong again.
This is the season
of letting go
of the burdens of the heart.
May they be compost
for new growth
and the renewal
of your indomitable
spirit.
