Why?

A helpless question. First frost bites are merciless and do not leave room for any hope. When you see your beloved dahlias without life,  anger is  usually the instant reaction although we were prepared for such an unsightly sight. Suddenly, the perspective of long dreary winter months becomes almost tangible. On the other hand, the idea of perpetual repetition of life-cycles seems incredible, hence childish indignation. But poor dahlias can help here. Their tuberous roots need to be dug up and this very  physical activity forces us to concentrate on more down -to -earth thoughts and actions. I am positive that not only dahlias can give us a helping hand and save a lot of energy we might squander on depressing divagations like...the idea of passing.  I know, I know, it is all unavoidable. OK, I understand, but  before I accept it, I want to deceive myself and  enjoy the last happy moments when the world looked definitely more colourful, however vulnerable. Just before the unwelcome thrusts of  inevitable and ruthlessly cold nights. Why not accompany me?
