Solstice

Happy Solstice/Yule! Today is the shortest day, after the longest night. From now until Midsummer, the days grow longer and the light returns.
sea_dark_wine sent me a poem that she said I had written a long time ago about the solstice. I don't remember it at all, so it must have been a *very* long time ago! Here it is:
The geese fly high
this Solstice morn.
The woods are bare,
the snow is deep.
We wait for Herne
to sound His horn,
to wake His children
up from sleep
To celebrate this happy night,
When Winter may be put to flight
