Winter Solstice
Brokeback Mountain lies written now in drifts of snow.
Listen!
It is read by the biting wind.
It is lit by the Northern Lights
corralled by Heath on the slopes of Heaven.
Front-Ranger:
Wonderful, O-doggie! Thanks for sharing!

It was a beautiful day in my neck of the woods.
I wore yellow, all my amber jewelry and gold sun motif rings and earrings, dabbed on some "Sol Invictus" perfume I have.
My sister won some tickets to an ice-sculpture exhibit at a local resort so we drove out there. This resort had some sort of 'freezer' exhibit hall were they'd created a storyscape of 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas' in ice sculptures. It was amazing. We were given parkas, they had a snow machines - reminded me of Edward Scissorhands - that had snow drifting through the cold air and an ice slide. It was an amazing exhibit. Unfortunately, they had a manger scene in ice just as you exited with recorded announcements about 'our god' ::) Oh, well, can't have everything. But the creche scene was beautifully done.
Then my sister treated me to supper and later that night, we drove through the rich neighborhoods to look at the Xmas lights, saw the horse-drawn carriages with people being given tours (I've always wanted to do that with friends or a SO. Wrap up, take a horse-drawn carriage tour and drink champagne...someday...).
The lights were just beautiful. All in all a very nice way to celebrate the day.
