autumnal equinox

in the trail smooth new chestnuts

offering balance

amid blighted trees

prickly harvest of chestnuts

so much we've lost, and yet

September 26: Harvest of memories

Middle of the road

split-open husk, horse chestnut

for childhood's pockets.

October 31: Halloween walk at Merryspring

The child carries around

the chestnut husk

as if it were a new pet.
