At the abyss of the year
the sun is silent;
but in the bleak midwinter
something shifts
A fearful hope, homunculus,
wakes the woman: light
beyond the turning of the world
begins to show

Thank you. I’ve always found this time of year so contemplative. Winter strips away all excess and lays bare the essentials.
