Seasonal Solstice Sentiments

Peace in Winter – a mixed media painting on board by Lyn

At this seasonal solstice, may all Beings everywhere and without exception find peace, peace, peace.

Why Not

Choose Peace?

Open the door and step outside.

Maybe there’s a tree, or a wood, a garden,

or a magic world where you can pause.

And be still.

Why not? 

Get to know fully, headlong, the presence of your own human body.

It is yours after all.

It is precious.

Listen to your heart.

Connect to your essence. 

Don’t be concerned with life-long tasks.

Listen to the voice within.

Listen to silence.

Why not?

Things are changing, starting to snag, spin, snap 

and fly off into the ice-blue yonder of the long winter’s afternoon.

Go with it, let out the ooohs and the ahhhs. 

Close your eyes.

Relax.

And breathe.

Choose peace and love. Discover joy and contentment.
