The Solstice of Sobriety

Embracing Dawn: A Journey Through Sobriety’s Light

By Tracy ToccaraPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

As the longest day unfolds its golden light,

A solstice of the soul, a beacon bright.

The sun ascends, its rays a healing balm,

A symbol of hope, a promise to calm.

In the dance of recovery, steps are taken,

With each sunrise, a new path is awakened.

The shadows of addiction, once so stark,

Give way to resilience, igniting the spark.

Life's tapestry weaves threads of joy and pain,

But in sobriety's embrace, we find our gain.

The summer solstice marks a turning tide,

A moment to celebrate, to let go and confide.

We stand in the light, our spirits unbound,

In the warmth of the sun, our strength is found.

The journey's not easy, the road may be long,

But with each other's support, we'll sing our song.

So let us raise our voices in jubilant cheer,

For the solstice of sobriety is finally here.

A testament to life, to love, to fight,

To rise above darkness and embrace the light.
