Winter Solstice

beckons darkest day offering a farthing of moonshine and starlight — coupled flesh warm beneath quilt Winter wine keeps spirits’ bright beckons darkest day coldness of the Christ’s sealed tomb — tears and fears presume the worst of ebon, the death of life and healing; breathing celebration of the birth and rebirth from God at the darkest times — star of Bethlehem sojourns to every bootlegged corner celebration of all sons and daughters of King haloed in moonshine — silent nights prescribed, roaring hearth and candlelight; pristine 12/9/2020
