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.
