All the Best this Season and in the New Year

Students, Alumni and Friends of Germanna:

It has been a privilege to serve Germanna and you over the last year. All the best to you and yours this holiday season and in the coming year.

Solstice

The clear night drops snow from
the clarity of stars, sighing in
a gather under our footsteps.

The brevity of cold light outside
leads us indoors to the warmth
greeting from a fireplace.

There oak and maple hiss steam
from snow crannied into bark.
Summer sweet sap crackles.

And we are witness to the logs
becoming red glows, our faces
the embers of quiet celebration.
