Winter Solstice

Tis the shortest day of the year, here.

The bears are hibernating and I also have that sleepy spirit in me.

Going with the flow of more darkness, wood stove going in the wee cabin, the cold days and snow feels nurturing, gentle and restorative.

Also....

outside the cold air is invigorating and inspiring. 

I wish you a blessed Solstice

whether it is with our short days

or long days where you are. 

(this is an older piece and seemed perfect for today)

Winter Solstice

the sun passed through the sky

low

to the mountains

tis the shortest day of the year

being filled with more night than day light 

she 

sat

with stars in her heart

at peace with the passing of the sun

I think this photo shows the gold leaf better:

last night's crescent moon was incredibly beautiful

I saw the sun's light on it more than looking at it as a 

sliver of moon 

somehow

noticing it that way felt like a solstice gift

sunlight at night

Lovely Solstice to you

Winter Solstice

on the shortest day of the year

her spirit takes flight

leaping in celebration 

for a bit more light

each day

~

lovely Solstice to one and all

whether it is Winter or for some Summer.

here it is certainly winter

Winter Solstice 2014

may the magic of the shortest day

cloak of the longest night

touch your heart

inspire your depths 

and may your spirit glow

with candles snow and stars

until each day grows longer by the light of our sun

lovely solstice
summer or winter 
to one and all

this week we had ice crystals

i simply adore them

Solstice Fae

for you and me

and 

all the creatures large and small

on the longest night

the shortest day

she appeared from the winter forest

with a garland of candles as her crown

to light the way

for you and me

and 

all the creatures large and small

more and more light

each day

~

welcoming the light

~
beautiful Solstice to you!

I made this piece for a 3D Winter Solstice show 
(the bear, woman and sun hover above the landscape)

at Bonelli's Bistro 

in Kalsipell Montana

stop by to see the wonderful art on their walls

and enjoy a yummy meal!
