Poem: A Yuletide Blessing

 


Long is the night
        and the stars are bright;
Cold is the wind,
        and sighing.
Bare are the trees --
        there's snow in the breeze;
Silent, the land...
        but not dying:
Sleep is the cure
        when one must endure --
Lord, knight, lady and fool:
    here is the night
When back comes the light:
    blessed be all, upon Yule.
