WINTER SOLSTICE 2015



    I am the darkness that surrounds the world, 
                       
        I am the cloak of mystery, around me all life flows. 
                           
 I am the deep, in me all planets float. 
                                         
I am mystery. 
                               
Out from me shines all light. 
                               
Without darkness there is nothing. 
                                           
  Today is my glory. 
                          
   Tonight I am the force that can deny light. 
                                       
Witness my power.

  2. Ah' this is best heard in a darkened room by an orator with a deep slow voice.

  3. This has a special resonance in a northern land like Canada when in the north darkness really does envelop the earth for six weeks.

    1. Thank you.
      I feel very strongly about how darkness is often attributed as being a negative force, whereas it has a very important role in our lives.
