equinox

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::



spring ancestor worship -
a bunch of sparrows
in the old tree



:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::



Equinox days are for ancestor worship.
The family assembles at the graves, cleans them and performs the rites of the season.

spring equinox
no one will perform the rites
when I depart

No matter! Such an unexpectedly beautiful morning! They had predicted snow and frost, hoping they were wrong ... and they are!
