Autumnal Blessing

God of sinking light -
God of growing night -
Ripe with budding hopes, we pause for spitting snows.
Sleeping into shadows, we hallow fading glows.
"Nothing gold can stay" ablaze,
The tumbling leaves depart;
Yet may this holy harvest warm
Our body, mind and heart.

God of sinking light..

Perfect and lovely for this time of the changing of seasons - a time of light and darkness emphasized.
