Equinox Blessings
light and dark are equal, this halving harvest
a cusp, be-twixt then be-tween days, which speak of balance, of equanimity
spirit radiates down, soul oozes up, White Gold, Rose Gold
miscible energies which
meet, mingle, manifest
part buddha, all buffoon
but more, for to be human, this hodge podge of humour, sorrow and beauty
breakfast in the garden, languish in sunshine, the last hurrah
amongst tomato plants, the red nose splodge of late fruit, the sprawl of the nettle patch,
umbelliferous leaves of courgettes, the veined twirl and writhe of their urgent saffron trumpets
a purple florid phosphorescence of pustulated buddleia flowers
(purple prosed preposterousness myself!)
ponder back on a summer of festivals, hammocks, saunas, frantic flung about dancing, hugs
a gentle daunt at the days to come
to the beach for sunset!

pic is portrait half in light, half in shade… and the same for buddha< i like the way the buddhas solar disk halo and the sun ray emblem on my t-shirt give it a subtle (very subtle!) yin yang resonance
