    Twas the night before Solstice

    Twas the night before Solstice
    And all thru the forest,

    The pagans were dancing
    And singing a chorus

    Earth, water, fire, air
    We are everywhere!

    All the creatures are freed
    From their laboratory tests

    To return to their warrens,
    And warm little nests.

    Now the loggers are rangers
    Tending their trees,

    And smoke wafts softly
    To sweeten the breeze,

    The Hemp is all harvested
    And hung up to dry
    The women are drumming
    And I’m feeling high!

    Earth water fire air
    We are everywhere!

    All the weapons are now plowshares,
    All the prisons, daycares,

    All the Safeways and Walmarts,
    Farmer’s markets and street faires!

    The Stars are all sparkling
    Through smogless skies,

    And the women can fearlessly
    Look in men’s eyes.

    Now the children can dance
    Their sugar plum visions

    Free from the Christian Fundamentalist
    Missions

    No more are they medicated
    Tested, and graded,

    And now that they’re free
    They’re so dedicated.

    Earth water fire air
    We are everywhere!

    They ask will it change
    We have always been here
    Sister to the moon, brother to the deer.
    Living a life that lets life come alive
    We are not striving
    We’ve already arrived!

    And I in my Kurta
    In need of a nap
    Could not settle down
    So I came up with this rap!

    So Happy Solstice to all,
    And to all a Good night!!!
