On Solstice

12/21/2017 By Kate McDermott-Art of the Pie 10 Comments

On Solstice

This shortest day
sun glitters on frost
like sparkling stars
we warm ourselves
by bright fire
flame that keeps the dark at bay.

Happy Solstice to Everyone

Almost Solstice

      Patricia- Thank you so much for sharing your words. It’s a vulnerable place to be for sure, and sometimes I feel like I’m crazy, but then I think… no matter the distance, we are all here together. The more I share, the closer I feel to you.

        A good day for eating pie and keeping warm! Thanks for the sharing. My 3 legged pup (cancer survivor) is my BF and we will be snuggling tonight for sure.

        Might even let Hubs and Grandma in on the cuddles. XO

    I’m so glad I went to your delightful conversation about Life with Pie at Jefferson Cty Library last month! You allow yourself to be open and joyful…this is something we can all do more often as we walk through our days…will also bake a pie soon!
