The cosmos is silent,
The stars shimmer behind
The floating silver clouds.
The autumn stopped
Counting her fallen leaves.
The early winter is coming,
Bringing chills in the dark.
The full Frost Moon is busy charging
Precious stones and ancient sigils
That are carved on the face of the earth.
I gather her celestial dust
In my palms and amass
All blessings of this mystical Universe.
I am chanting to all silent nebulas above.
Tonight, I’m a tiny part
Of this cosmic silence of LOVE.
