Poetic Thoughts - Fall (his first column from 2004) - by C.W. Pruitt II

posted: Sept. 14, 2012

Fall is such a beautiful time of the year in Broad Ripple. The trees lining College Avenue display a glimpse of God's art.

I love Fall, yet dread the coming Winter. Since becoming bipolar I have struggled through Winter.

The trees rustle

and shed their

wonderfully clad

leaves.

As Fall approaches

I lament

my losses

and brace

my self

for another Winter

which will

assuredly bring

hopelessness.

Then a ray

of light

will break

through my veil

and Spring

will come forth

and I will be

reborn

again.
