"Sing to me of the man, Muse, the man of twists and turns driven time and again off course, once he had plundered the hallowed heights of Troy."

O Muses, O high genius, aid me now! O memory that engraved the things I saw, Here shall your worth be manifest to all!

O God, you have prepared in peace the path I must follow today.
Help me to walk on that path.
If I speak, remove lies from my lips.
If I am hungry, take away from me all complaints.
If I have plenty, destroy pride in me.

May I go through the day, calling on you, you,
O Lord, who know no other Lord.

Wishing you a holy Solstice..

Artwork by Wendy Andrews

The eve of Winter Solstice
holds a magical air
for ‘tis the longest night,
with the richest fare.

Infused with wisdom,
unseen by most,
garnered by you
by your desire for growth.

In the morn,
the light filters in
and lo and behold
Awareness begins.

But without the darkness,
that rendered you wise,
the dawning light
would have nil to advise.

So sing ye an ode
to the bountiful darkness
for all the wonders
within the primordial womb.

Last night the fog slept in the deep wildflower field. With the dawn it now rises to resume its journey to the east, trailing precious dewdrops as bits of its dream stuff.
