May you all find solace and warmth as the sun returns...

May the dark and silence of winter fill you with thoughts profound and remembrances dear...

May your budding trees be safe from the winds and ice of winter...

May your birds and squirrels find seeds and nuts and suet to nourish them in this lean season...

May your loved ones treasure one another as they gather, far and near, by sight or sound, with voices and embraces, in this time of hope and renewal...

May you enjoy the bright, glittering magic of winter, its pale sunsets, its brilliant dawns, its bracing winds, its silvery skies...

May you be blessed in the season of eternal green.
