Lean Forward

The earth tilts away from the light

So we must lean forward

And light candles.

After a year of change

that is both welcome and unwelcome,

And a year of rising up and sinking down,

of community and solitude,

of creation and bureaucracy:

I’m tired.

All very interesting

And really, a little too interesting.  

Onward!

May you be blessed with light in the darkness, warmth in the cold, glitter in the snow and a joyful winter solstice.
