It's knowing that we took it slow,
It's holding you each eve,
It's watching us build and grow,
It's watching us achieve.
It's the things that show me every day,
Our lives are as we conceive.
It's in the things you do and say,
Knowing in you, in us, I believe.

The Solstice in Bad Gumption
‘How do we go about it?’ The group of three men and one boy shifted from foot to foot around a bonfire spluttering sparks in the bone chilling drizzle, a few hefty stones sitting amid the flames. They were thinking about all the time it took to get it going in this weather. Someone sniffed, someone coughed. They all felt cold and uneasy standing at the edge of the fields sprawling in front of them in the dusk, with their backs to the dripping birches surrounding the cemetery.
