On cozy nights
when the dark is long
I am reminded
that sleep is good
that cats know how to rest
and our bodies are more like gardens
then machines
As solstice comes
we celebrate
That seasons
change
We don’t have to be
stuck
there is beauty
in the creative
womb of darkness
In the peeping stars
the quiet snows
the gentler winters of the South
The Axis
on which the world turns
reminds us
that humanity celebrates
this
holy time
in so many beautiful ways
So Cozy Solstice
Blessed Rest
May you have spaces of Restoration
Sanctuaries of acceptance
And moments to just be
As we welcome in
the gentle rhythms
of what is yet to come
