Winter Solstice

Celebrate the return of the sun

on the winter's solstice

"The wheel of the year has turned once more,

and the nights have grown longer and colder.

Tonight,the darkness begins to retreat,

and light begins its return once again.

As the wheel continues to spin,

the sun returns to us once more

.....even in the darkest hours,

even in the longest nights,

the spark of life lingered on.

Laying dormant,waiting,ready to return

when the time was right.

The darkness will leave us now,

as the sun begins its journey home.

...the light of the sun has returned to us,

bringing life and warmth with it.

The shadows will vanish, and life will continue.

We are blessed by the light of the sun."

-Patti Wigington
