Could there be anything better worth staying up for on the shortest day of the year? We'll be serving hot chocolate, tea, little shot glasses of glowing liqueurs and a tray of homemade cookies (moon shaped, of course) on our boat for the viewing!
The Moon's North Wind's cooky.
He bites it, day by day,
Until there's but a rim of scraps
That crumbles all away.
The South Wind is a baker.
He kneads clouds in his den.
And bakes a crisp new moon that...
greedy... North Wind... eats again!
~ Vachel Lindsay, The Moon's the North Wind's Cooky (What The Little Girl Said)
