On this winter solstice night
Light a candle
Let it burn bright
Step outside...
Into the crisp winter air
Feel the freshly fallen snow crunch beneath your feet
Watch the snowflakes flit and flutter
Dancing down from their place among the stars
Laugh at those that fall upon your nose
Look home
The hearth glows
Flickering softly through the windows
Casting shadows
Silhouettes of the love that lives within
Breathe
Take it in
Close your eyes
Think of all that’s come to pass
Be thankful
Without the dark
There would be no light
Know that you will again be warmed by the fireside
Friends and family near
Your candle
Still there
Burning bright
All through this long winters night
And into the light of the dawning New Year
