It's based on a poem written in 1870 by English writer Christina Rosetti (who I already love because of "The Goblin Market") and was added Gustav Holst music (English Composer best known for his Planets Suite) in 1906, and later on as Anthem by Harold Darke (1911). I only covered the first verse which is the one that only speaks of Nature and the Winter Solstice, but it belongs to a longer poem. Still this is my favourite verse and part with no other religious reference but painting a wintry landscape portrait. I mentioned in previous entries that for me Yule (Winter Solstice) is not only important because the Wheel of the Year comes to an end and brings a new chance to refresh our resolutions but also because it's the longest Night in the Year and the moment Winter starts. We think of Winter as a "dark" and "cold" season, but truely from "Midwinter" on, every day becomes longer. It looks like a contradiction but "The Dark season" marks also "the return of Light" Lyrics Excerpt of the poem by In the bleak mid-winter Frosty wind made moan; Earth stood hard as iron, Water like a stone; Snow had fallen, snow on snow, Snow on snow, In the bleak mid-winter Long ago.
