Take a deep breath,
Let yourself hold a moment,
You'll feel it
The whirling world,
the winter sky
the very universe holds still
Just when we least expect,
Just when we're truly spent,
Just when we have most need
The shortest night,
The brightest stars,
The very air goes calm.
Hold up your hands in prayer, if you will,
Hold out your heart in peace, it is time,
Hold it all in your soul.
Let stillness hold you now
And be glad
Then go on.
