I’ve written this poem myself about Yule, I hope you enjoy it.

Yuletide Blessings

I wonder what Yule means to my friends and others?

Is it the same for my sisters and brothers?

A time to hibernate, relax and retreat,

A coming together for those in my street.

The hanging of door wreaths and lighting of candles,

Now its all presents and someone else’s scandals

Do you buy into the adverts that start in October?

Or are you bored by Samhain with their over exposure?

Yule is about the return light

Thinking of the year past and it’s insight.

Taking time to love and to learn

Accepting not everything serves us, without concern

Let my Yuletide be filled with love and with joys,

No need for expensive gifts, new mobiles or a sack for of toys.

Love and healing for me and all mine,

That’s all I ask of the Goddess Divine.

By Louise Bloomer (Dec 2024)

Happy Yuletide and brightest of blessings for 2025.
