Winter Solstice

[thallygal]

Winter

Encapsulating me, the gray skies, casting shadows

On the new born snow.

Shrouding my body in pearly moist fog,

Protecting me from harshness,

Metamorphosing my body, my mind, my spirit,

Preparing for rebirth.

The stillness, solitude, echoing my aloneness,

Reverberating back to me

Nights of darkness

Nights of blackness

The shadow of my soul.

My mind, it whirls, it dances, ebbs and flows,

Imitating the tides of the mighty ocean

Deep, magnificent

Huge expanse of whiteness.

The waves dancing upon sands of time,

Playing the endless game of catch me if you can,

Capture me and I will dance with you

A dance of lightness and of mirth

For in this time of deepest sorrow

Joy is being spun

The threads of delight ready to create silken filaments

Threads weaving together

Birthing a tapestry of joy

Amidst the sorrow.

It is the ending

It is the beginning

The circle of life dances on.

Thalia, your poem is beautiful. The cycle of life mirrored in each season has its own beauty and its own wisdom. To appreciate the "silken filaments-threads weaving together" is to savor the essence of life and of living. 

You are Blessed. Happy Winter Solstice, Merry Christmas, and may life's beauty always be with you.

Thank you for sharing.
