Always June, you have the power to entice the tiny diamond hidden deep within my core
Exerting pressure with a breeze or the kiss of rain on my cheek
Slowly June, you cajole memory upon emotion upon young woman’s dreams to shine
Polishing away the rough surfaces of subsequent years, disappoints and fears
Beautiful June, faceting my hopes and dreams with brilliance and clarity
Restoring once again clarity to my heart and brilliance to my soul

Vervain my crown
The veil becomes thinner
The Holly King resumes his throne
Rejoice!

Solstice
Evening descends
Dusky shadows lengthen
Summer’s longest day pales into
Twilight
