Spring Equinox

The equal balance of light and dark.

A shift from slumber to life’s new spark.

The darker our Winter days have been

the brighter Springs light will lovingly seem.

It is because of the Winter’s grey,

we can see the colours of a bright Spring day.

Because of Winter’s mud and rain,

We’ll love our sandals and bare feet again.

And if the Winter felt too long,

welcome now the sweet bird song.

When Winter makes us worn and tired,

the Spring feels freshly reinspired.

With rainy days still yet to come, we must not feel defeat.

They’ll water the grass to be greener and richer at our feet.

It is all in balance. Equilibrium... Equinox.
