    Happy Solstice (First Thought Best Thought)

    Tether up, weather up, hold the light
    Energy burst, do it all again, haters cursed
    Come together by day by night
    Roots tied to truth to lies surprise yer’ flies kryptonite
    Differences put aside for a few, I slide askew
    The bond of humans true, solid branches
    In solidarity, easy moon love mansions
    Smile, be nice, say hi, lend a hand
    Easy, take it nicely, voice it Monday
    Turn the other cheek for a mile

    Just until the holiday is over come
    Have respect for the Jesus, for the Santa fans
    The children, for their sakes, play nice
    Keep down the arguments, hold off reality
    Wait and see what comes next year
    Practice tolerance for other belief systems
    No matter how brief, no mutter ow’ stupid
    Hold on a minute, don’t jump, don’t

    Go on with it, wait, just wait
    Hold it now, I’m signing off, just a tick
    Sorry, I was late but it’s the holiday mate
    We should all understand things are different
    Today, a holiday day so hold your horses, take pauses
    Take it easy, relax, at home with the fam’ hey hey
    With global TV news and global entertainment
    With Netflix, Youtube, cable all this, man. Cave. Hellven?

    Me in this silence, just nodding over saying yes yes
    Happy joy joy merry merry happy…all smiles
    I’ll keep my mouth shut and listen
    To the pine needles dropping on the wooden floor
    This solstice I give in, I surrender protest and anger
    Instead join arms and sing ole’ lasagna
    How lucky we are to have this life thing, Ping!
    Let us use it and cherish each hour
    And lift up the great ball of light and throw it
    Into tomorrow

    Make sweet mix with sour, stand up, don’t cower
    Into darkness, ignite the core again, flaming
    Toward the light like a moth go
    Toward spring and summer again flow
    Together, all playing nice
    I wish you happy Solstice.

    Don’t take crap from anybody.
