Happy Holidays !!!
It's even on the shortest day
that we might see some sun
confirming with a lazy ray
another orbit done.
But that is when the season starts
where things get really tough,
especially for lonely hearts
when love is off the cuff...
and so to decor we resort
with beaux-arts and some cheer
to see unhappiness abort
before the newest year!
We fill the dying days of old
with brand new love and light
so no lone psyche gets too cold...
on an extended night:)

Author's Note
As a midnight sonneteer, there's not much I love more than a long night, but I realize it's not the same for everybody:)

Happy holidays to all, and to all a good night 💤💤

I agree cannot stay awake like I used to. But love to be inspired by the night. Happy Holidays.

like to think of the people who gather
around Stonehenge for the
winter solstice in the rain and the wind-
I mean yes I think they’re odd, but maybe I’m
just strange..

Gotta bundle up.
Oh they're odd all right, but at least Brits have always had a knack for making eccentricity such an endearing thing:)
