A Poem for the Spring Equinox, March 20, 2025
One of my resolutions this year was to write a poem for each of the eight festivals in the Pagan Wheel of the Year.
The Spring Equinox is today, March 20, in 2025. It’s when day and night are equal length, and can be viewed as the turning point from winter to summer. Yet, as we are well aware, in England the weather doesn’t suddenly switch from being cold to being warm. The shift is more gradual than that, which is what inspired this poem.
Equinox
Winter, Summer
Day, Night
Before, After
Goddess, God.
Are these opposites?
Or might they meet
in spring and half-light?
Mingling and merging
in the dance of now.
