Today is the Autumn Equinox. From now on, the days become shorter, the nights grow longer.
But I don’t lament: Winter is my favourite season, and Autumn heralds the beginning of my favourite half of the year. I stock up on my books as we turn inwards, batten down the hatches, light the fire. Begin to revel in the dark and the storms.
This year, please, let there be snow.
Yes, let there be! And good books aplenty!

Yes, please let there be snow! We need to communicate this need to the weather gods. I’m scared they aren’t hearing our prayers!

I think for the last few years they have been absent during the winter. Probably gone somewhere sunny!

Utterly disappointed. I shall consider a change in belief if they fail yet again this year…

What a lovely poem. I hope you get snow this year. Let me know if you don’t. I’ll send what we get. You’re welcome to it.
