Monthly Reflection
by Sister Martha Wordeman

October 2009

      October: The northern hemisphere's trees are displaying their brilliant color, but most flower gardens seem depleted and lifeless. A poet, whose name I do not know, used this moment to sum up the deep, unfathomable phenomenon of life, death and resurrection:

Little flower in the ground, petals falling all around.
Summer's gone and autumn's here, and now we know your death is near

Seeds that fall upon the ground, by the wind are scattered 'round.
Some will feed the winter bird, and some will nestle in the earth.

Some will last the winter through, 'til the spring makes all things new.
See the flower newly grown, from seed the winter wind has sown.

Praise to God, Our Father above, who shows us all His way of love.
Praise God, for the dying year. If winter comes, then spring is near.

 

En Español

   Octubre: Los árboles del hemisferio del norte presentan sus brillanes colores, pero la mayoría de los jardines de flores parecen vacios y sin vida. Un poeta, cuyo nombre no sé, ha aprovechado este momento para sumar el hondo insondable fenómeno de la vida, muerte y resurrección:

Florecitas del campo, pétalos que se caen alrededor.
El verano se fue y el otoño está aquí y ahora sabemos que la muerte se acerca.

Semillas que caen en el suelo, por el viento que se esparcen por todos lados.
Algunas serán comida para los pajaritos del invierno y otras se acomodarán en la tierra.

Algunas duraran todo el invierno hasta que la renueve todas las cosas.
Mira la flor recien crecida, que brota de la semilla que los vientos del invierno han sembrado.

Alabado sea Dios, nuestro Padre Celestial, que nos muestra su cariño de amor.
Alabado sea Dios por el año que temrina. Si el inviemo viene, la primavera se acercará.
