Solstice Dream
Yesterday was the winter solstice here in New Zealand. This morning, I looked outside and laughed with delight. Snow! In my garden! A good two inches. Wet snow, just starting to melt, but still. "Will you look at that, it hasn't snowed like that here since 1952," I told my bewildered flatmate. I opened the door, scooped up two fingerfuls of snow from the back stair balustrate, and slid the snow into my mouth. Mmmm, snow.
And then...I woke up.
It was only a dream - even though I could taste the snow!
When I went outside, there hadn't even been a frost. Uninterrupted lush wet greenery met my eyes. And my Crepuscule rose was in bloom, even. Some winter solstice!
