Winter Solstice

"Winter solstice"
By: Jen

Nothing is better
than the day
the sun is
farthest from the Earth

Seems like the
cold reflects my heart

As does the darkness

Will this chill ever end?

A question I ask often
but get no reply

I seek the answer
on the winter solstice

I feel so at home
on that day

So alive,so awake

That's normally my
happiest day unless
it snows

snow is too bright
too pretty for the
drab of winter

I wish it would just
go away on my favorite day

a day so cold, dark, and drab

the day of the winter solstice

the day i search for the answer
one i'll probably never
find.....
