Fall Equinox
NOTE: I WILL BE OFF LINE FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS BEGINNING TOMORROW. HAPPY FALL, EVERYONE! I AM OFF TO SAN FRANCISCO TO SEE OLD FRIENDS AND VISIT THE WINE COUNTRY AS WELL AS THE MONTEREY PENINSULA.
Fall Equinox
Once more the season turns,
time, the great river of light,
sweeping us along,
as if we were leaves
newly cast down
from trees abandoning
their own present
for an undefined future,
a new world,
fresh beginning,
body clothed anew
in as yet indescribable garments,
green of new birth to come,
old skin shed,
pealed back,
hidden flesh revealed
fresh and raw,
everything starting again
once more.
