northern hemisphere / autumn equinox

northern hemisphere
autumn equinox
day and night
of equal length

the light paler
but the trees are
full of green leaves
some turning hint
yellow or red

the oaks stalwart
weeping willows
swaying over
pond that sheltered
faun and duckling

you might wonder
where they have gone
if you will see them
one last time tonight

peeping through
grasses and cattail
that are thinning
