challenge: Today is the first day of Spring in the Northern Hemisphere (Vernal Equinox), and the first day of Fall in the Southern Hemisphere (Autumnal Equinox). In both regions it is a time of balance, as we have almost equal light and darkness today, as the days grow longer in the north, and shorter in the south.

In honor of the Equinox, write a POEM or STORY about someone finding balance in their life ...

The Equinox



While spring pops open floristically

I type sci-fi optimistically

Mining ideas from every event’s strife

Juggling each droplet of daily life

Seeking for balance logistically
