celebration: solstice snowstorm, scent of sweetgrass

Posted by: Em  :  Category: poetry

happy solstice whispers the snow outside my window….

burning sweetgrass, lighting a candle: my ways of marking the return of light following a season of sacred darkness…

may you all have a lovely evening, and a (channukah, winter, yule) season filled with laughter, warmth, & joy.

all love,
