autumnal equinox Sept.23 2007

a day for thanksgiving, of celebrating the harvest but,

today there are no celebrations. i can harvest only grief.

i can not remember what to be thankful for.

all equinoxes are not equal

for 9 months now i have avoided writing about grief.

today i find it unavoidable

a year ago today we were all in the park celebrating Aidan's 1st birthday.

today there are no celebrations.

today like every day i wake up and look at your picture on the wall and i miss you

today i find i still can not write about grief,but just saying the word is a start.

all equinoxes are not equal

today i stand on the threshold and welcome Lugh the sun king as he becomes the lord of shadows,

maybe in this cycle of darkness i will process this grief

maybe at spring equinox i will ,like Kore find my way out of the labyrinth. maybe.

maybe on the next cycle of the wheel i return. maybe.

all equinoxes are not equal
