“Solstice Hymn by Stewart Stafford
Brittle bones upon the bitter green,
Ancient oil poured anoints this night,
Candlelit lifeline in a smothering void,
The covenant of fire amid frosty siege.
Nascent gold concubines the grey,
Eternal changing of the guard secured.
Traversing 'neath a Long Night Moon,
With symptoms of mortality to allay.
Let fear melt away as the last chillblain,
Sun’s palest eye affirms striving will.
Summer’s warmth radiates far horizons.
The Northern Lights’ verdant star’s amen.

“One of the best gifts I ever received is also one of my favorite memories. When I was about three or four years old, all the little kids in my family got to unwrap a giant box of balloons.
We were overjoyed. Colorful balloons fell to the ground everywhere. My grandparents smiled. All my aunts and uncles laughed, and my parents were happy.
It is still one of the warmest memories of my life. My heart leaps just thinking about it.
When I became a mother, I wanted to give my children that kind of memory. I also wanted them to appreciate gifts like that -- simple and inexpensive yet meaningful and filled with joy.
So when my eldest daughters were five and three, I saved the biggest box I could get. I blew up so many balloons that my mouth went numb. And when it came to wrapping everything, I spent hours fighting with wrapping paper, ribbon, and tape to make it look perfect. But when I finished, I knew my girls would have the time of their life.”
