Earth's axis tilting

                                    Circling around the sun

                                       Winter has begun

Winter Solstice

a winter solstice   (Haiku)
heavy snow falling 
kids play happily with snow
they build a snow man

Celtic Priest stands tall
Village folk wide eyed in hope
Sun will hear his call

Darkness
Comes early now
First frost will be here soon
Winter solstice around the corner
Short day

Listen to poem:
as days fade to night
the season blights to winter
dearth of light brings haggard chills

landscape bedraggled
shriveled to black then bleached white
cries ice tears then hibernates

Winter Solstice

The winter solstice
Is as big as the year
A small reunion
May you have 
The warmest love
On the longest night
The days after this
Are like cold light
Meets the sun
Bright and bright.

snow deep shortest day
longest night cold earth does sleep
calm hibernation

                                             Sun is sitting low
                                         The air is bitingly crisp
                                             O Winter Solstice

All lit up with festive lights 
Shortest day and longest night 
The beginning of the end 
The darkness gives way to sun
As we start our journey back
We rejoice in the season,
Magical Winter Solstice!

Premium Member Winter Solstice Blessing 7x7

Spell magic ‘Mother Nature’;
Mixing holly with sunshine,
red, gold and a hint of green;
The rays glow, we spin closer;
Like the flames of a fire’s blaze,
beyond darkness there is light;
She will warm us all again.

Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall

The seasons operate like Nature’s clocks:
when winter solstice fades, we’re on the rise!
Meridian’s behind us now (approx),
so savour, while you can, those smiling skies:
then buckle up! Here comes the equinox!

winter solstice arriving...
shortest day and longest night...
silent trees gather forces
for returning light

lighter, longer, brighter days
saunter through the winter gloom...
light triumphs over darkness
renewal awaits

winter solstice comes
bare trees long hibernation
don’t risk bleeding lips 

gardens lie fallow
field mice attempting entry
long dark frigid nights

snowfall slowly melts
winter giving way to spring
first mosquito bite

Hue

Christmas all a new
Frozen dew drops of prism hue
Winter Solstice celebration
Children with imagination
Evergreens burdened with snow
Windows framed all a glow
Memories and traditions form
Christmas to me is wonderfully adorned

Sundays

Winter Solstice, Apollo, Sun god, Constantine had a say ...
For the first day of the week: Christian worship day
A strange connection: Sundays and SonDays For Jesus
Until Covid19 shut down half-empty churches
Do I have enough light to follow the Son anyway?

Winter Solstice

Today is the winter solstice
I'll be at work at six PM
Twelve and a half hours till I get off
Prognosis is somewhat dim!

The winter solstice definition
I read brought a smile and a tear,
Is the shortest period of light
And the longest night of the year!

Penumbra

inky black night
stars brightly sparkling
earths giant shadow
moon slowly fading

dark shadow spreading
a total lunar eclipse
a rare winter solstice
not to be missed

finally total coverage
only one light to see
a bright orange penumbra
meant for only me

YULETIDE ORIGINS

YULETIDE ORIGINS

On the first day of Yuletide
The winter solstice ends
Twelve days until
A new solar year
A feast to the sun
Odin as the god
Pagan origins
Hauled heavy log
Chance to repent
The giving of gifts
Holly and the ivy
And then adopted by Christianity

Winter Script

The lust overtakes 
the content.
Winter solstice gives the answer.
        
        *

    The winter moon.
How much a bunker will 
    provide you the shelter ?


        *

    A countryside.
The huddled mushrooms 
    protecting their kids.

it is coming back
the cold cruel touch of winter
be ready for it

the cold is coming
December’s winter solstice
start of the season

ubiquitous white
the snow is found everywhere
a wintertime scene

after the sun sets
darkness brings cold in winter
a typical night.

* As Winter Approaches The sun ascends From the left of east, And sets due left of west. During daylight hours sits low, After winter solstice, gains height. Peaking when summer solstice arrives Then starts its orbital journey once more.
