A Solstice Blessing

'Wonders of Nature' Painting by Nicholas Frick

'Twas the dawn of Solstice,

When all around our Earth,

The great creator revealed our eternal worth.

Our Ancestors knew the grand stage was set,

In the North, winter’s longest night had been met,

Down under the South’s longest day had been had;

As the great cog of the wheel appeared to be mad!

The miraculous unfolding of existence prevailed,

As all living creatures knew to hail,

The unfolding of the turn of the cosmic tide,

Its stillness in action as we abide

The shifting direction on the turn of a dime,

So seamless and with nothing left behind…

We celebrate the great dance of the cosmos

As once again we are reminded of those

Unseen powers that teach us to have faith,

That all is in order and filled with grace.

The juxtaposition of the South and the North

The longest night and longest day go forth;

Seemingly holding the key to stability

Which we’ve learned to accept with great humility.

On the longest night we go within to dream

Of the year ahead and all that is unseen;

On the longest day of the year, we act out

The dreams that we had, without a doubt

With glee and determination

As our dreams come to fruition!

The wonder of it all has been celebrated

For eons as our Ancestors watched and waited

For the Creators magnificent design to unfold

Enabling us to be bold,

As our faith in a power greater than ourselves

Demanded our doubt to be put on the shelf.

From the microcosm to the macrocosm

Adjusting our focus to the algorithm

Of the greatest miracle of life,

We are reminded to release our strife,

To hold fast in our belief that we are a part

Of this grand design as we take heart

That all will be made whole

When we play out our role.

Patience and fear will do their dance

Ultimately our vision will be enhanced,

As the new dawn sheds light on the dark

With gratitude we’ve learned to hark!

Sending bright Solstice blessings to one and all,

As we now grow towards the Equinox’s Spring and Fall!
