Inspired by reading Wintering this Solstice morning...
Solstice Song
Winter comes, kind & slow—
unseen behind the glitter of other gifts.
Outside, the trees root deeper.
Inside, the fire glows brighter.
And further inside, the spirit asks to rest—
asks for fewer shoulds & more stillness.
For less noise & more silence
& more silence
& more silence
& the winter lovers listen.
