09/22/2022 - Mabon, 1st day of Autumn

"Autumn has arrived.

I hear it in the whispering of leaves.
I feel the nights stretching away
thousands long behind the days
'til they reach the darkness where
all of me is ancestor." ~Anjana

Autumn Equinox has finally
arrived. It usually hits the 
21st, but this year, the 22nd.

At o' dark thirty, my guy built 
a fire to celebrate. A friend is
coming for a class and brunch
later on . . . so much fun! Can't 
help but wonder what the day 
will bring.

I'd the the first to admit, the 
arrival of Fall represents the
oncoming cold for me. And,
'tis true . . . both yesterday
and today, 50 degrees. I find
I'm already longing for sun,
but I'll try to behave and 
enjoy the now.

I look forward to Autumn
leaves on my dining table,
drives up the mountains,
color galore, and trying to
enjoy each and every day
prior to the onset of cold
and snow.

"I miss you most of all,
When autumn leaves start to fall."
~Johnny Mercer, Jacques Prévert
