Winter Goddess

Illustration of the Winter Solstice Goddess holding a baby grey wolf. She sits near a barren tree with a crown of blue jewels on her head. Beside her are holly berries, and she wears white fur with snowflake designs on her dress and sheer veil. Her hair is adorned with white pearls and red berries.

 

Winter whispers, "It's time to sleep"
Internal voyage; dark corners; deep
Nesting spot, in dreams, we rest
Two-edged sword; a spirited test
Earth's axis tilts toward the sun
Ripples, light in darkness; pun
Goodnight, world; soon to wake
Old worn patterns, like glass, shall break
Distant howls, my grey wolf guide
Deepens awareness; my spirit side
Earnest energy evolves; emerge
Shedding layers, my yearly purge
Standing-still-sun, wisdom; resurge
