WINTER SOLSTICE
21 DECEMBER
*
I ATTENDED A CANDLELIT WINTER SOLSTICE SERVICE TONIGHT
AT THE CARONDELET CENTER AT ST. CATHERINE’S.
.
THE SOUND OFFERINGS WERE THE WRITINGS OF MAY SARTON
AND THE MUSIC WAS FROM DIVERSE CULTURES,
AND
PHRASES OF TIMED SILENCE WAS THE COUNTERPOINT.
*
MY ART IS FROM MY STILLNESS AND MY SILENCE.
WHEN PEOPLE EXPERIENCE MY WORK IT CALLS
TO THEIR STILLNESS AND SILENCE.
*
*
THE SKY OPENED AND SNOWFLAKES FELL LATE THIS AFTERNOON.
A MAGICAL SNOWGLOBE WAS OURS.
*
NATURE OPENED HER HEART,
AND FACETS OF DIAMONDS FELL
ON HER LONGEST NIGHT.
*
THE WORLD SHIMMERED AND GLISTENED.
THE FIRST SNOW FALL IN MINNESOTA
WAS ON THE WINTER SOLSTICE.
