AUTUMNAL EQUINOX

" Lord, it is time. The summer was very big. Lay thy shadow on the sundials, and on the meadows let the winds go loose. Command the last fruits that they shall be full; give them another two more southerly days, press them on to fulfillment and drive the last sweetness into the heavenly wine. "
~ Rainer Maria Rilke

~ Autumnal Equinox
(Hubbard Lake)
