Winter Solstice

Carpe Diem #631 Winter Solstice


after longest night
mornings do not come earlier
commute in darkness



winter solstice
long night does not compare
with your absence

  2. Oh, the absence! Powerful! (And bittersweet, I'm sure.)

    1. Thanks! Sitting alone late at night when the house is quiet one can imagine absence.
