Marking a pivot point in mid year towards shorter days, we experience the longest light we will receive in this year’s cycle.
The light of the longest day
has travelled such a long way
Past planets and black holes
to warm the earth beneath my feet
The stone circle built by ancestors
with hearts open and eyes to see
The sacredness of the turning of days,
the absorption of light into skin
Everything rises to greet the sun,
birdsong and flowers reach for her
Hearts lift to receive energy, where we become aglow
Seeing at last the abundance
of what is miraculously possible
