Dusk Awakes The Winter Solstice

Travelling Poetry

By Chloe GilholyPublished 9 years ago • 1 min read

Dulcet midnight hoots are luringUltraprecise prey below the groundSaintly feathered queen onlyKills when it’s needed as she's

Aroused by the hecticWaves of mountain windA mega force ofKindness absorbed byEverything that letsSacred skies evolve

The galactic dustHails our midnight starsEducating earth

Wealthy nights connectIntelligence withNeighbourly beingsTeaching us to beEngaged in musicRefined art and dance

Scholars of natureOverrule the thingsLike technologyTreating us to theImmense delights of ourClean tranquillity assisted by roasted marshmallowsEnjoy tonight’s dusk: there will never be another like this.
