solstice

in the darkness

light a candle or switch on a low lamp

sit comfortably or lie down

place your cupped hands over your closed eyes.

wait awhile

stay with your breath in the dark.
after a while take your hands away, but keep your eyes closed.
stay with your breath in the light.

after night’s sorrows
we will see new things – cold stars
our light beginnings
