Nae day sae dark

Today was the winter solstice and the shortest day really lived up to it's name ... although wettest day might have run a close second!


"Nae day sae dark; nae wüd sae bare;
Nae grund sae stour wi' stane;
But licht comes through; a sang is there;
A glint o' grass is green."

(William Soutar - from Nae Day Sae Dark)
