gods glowing golden

warm lights of Christmas

cradled in the dark like faith’s

blessed, blissed mysteries

*

illuminating

wonders in the everyday –

stars reflecting us

*

link us to each other

and our gods glowing golden,

lighting our lives in warmth

winter solstice: christmas blessing – five haiku

this winter solstice

as I love you, love me –

our Christmas blessing:

*
living loving both –

 if life means anything

let our thing be love.

*
longest, darkest night,

while Wodan hunts with ghosts all yearning

through skies of glowing spirits

*
may that night purge us all

those ghosts be at peace, in love

again with living

*

in shadowlands of love:

as I love you, love me

this winter solstice.
