Autumnal Equinox

yep,tonight

it begins

around 9pm

autumnal equinox

And tomorrow the days

will be hasty, waning into winter

as Autumn tries to deceive us

with wonder

hoping we will not notice

that our fair Lady,Summer,

has stolen away

in the night

leaving us with surrendering leaves

and gasping flowers...having one last word to say,

leaving their last will and testament behind

for their heirs.

But she must have looked back,one last time before she

wept goodbye....and threw us a splash of color to remember her by

until next year......for she had to go

others wait for her arrival

weary of Old man Winter

and his inward ways

      so farewell grand Lady

Godspeed
