A Winter Solstice Blessing
In your heartbeat
this darkest night
in the quiet
lies the pulse of peace.
We can hold hands
sync our heartsongs
discover
the circulatory system
the life force
that begins all
ends all
sustains all
and heals all
the communion of hearts
of spirits.
All this for the price
of hushed tones
faith in the dark
and deep listening.
