Autumn Reckoning
The autumn means many things way up here in the North. It’s a time of reckoning as our land turns away from the sun. This is when we take account after reaping a grateful harvest. There’s always enough left over, except for the greedy, who justify their taking more by an insatiable need to survive through their own internal, eternal winter. Now a toast and a prayer of patience for all those who wish to extend the fierce chill of the weather! Even they cannot stop the Earth from again tilting toward the sun, in our enduring desire for a new Summer.
