THE DARK LADY
Goddess Crone, so dark and wise,
Truth is written in your eyes.
You are Winter's darkened days,
You are Luna's waning phase,
You are She of maturation,
You are Hecate's lunation,
You are magick of the Earth,
You are death that brings rebirth.

In My Mind's
Eye
In
My Mind's eye, I see the circle of light,
Shining e'er so brightly amidst the shadows of the night.
I hear the leaves rustling in the wind;
the birds chirping and beating their wings;
The tall oak trees and ancient pines are all around;
And from the depths of the forest
come the owl, the stag, two squirrels and a hare.
All of them make their presence known with great care.
The Lady of the Moon sends her silver rays down;
As the High Priestess puts on her crescent crown;
The sisters and brothers hold their hands and form a ring;
Together, with perfect love and perfect trust, they chant and sing.
In my mind's eye, the circle of light gets brighter and brighter as it grows,
The Goddess and the God are ever present and their love truly shows.

(Untitled)
Wicked weeds push forth the earth,
gradually evading the dark moist dirt,
climbing higher to be kissed by the sun,
then plucked from its root by a gardeners thumb.
Weeds aren't wicked, they struggle to survive,
only wanting to live, not to die.
The dandelion's color, so yellow and fair,
loosely held within a child's hair.
Precious fields where wild flowers grow,
where butterflies frolic, where peace is known.
That is the way the Gods meant for them to be,
respect, loved, admired and free...

Phaelline
(published in print as "Elemental Goddess Daughter")
On gossamer wings do
faeries fly
as pixies in their rosebuds lie
Candle flicker, incense burn
spirit to its home return
Casting, divining, drawing down the moon
enter the circle of power soon
Enchantment courts the seeking soul
projecting as the dream unfolds
Waning moon or witching hour
offering of sacred dower
Fertile womb of Mother Earth
skyclad from the great rebirth
Scattering of telling rune
sisters unite by rite of moon
Earth, Air, Fire, Water
elemental goddess daughter

Midsummer Muse
'Tis Midsummer sure indeed
and the Great Mother carries his seed.
Heavy with child on this longest of days
she watches o'er us with a mothering gaze.
We ask her protection over field, home and beast
while we circle, then sit for our feast.

Untitled
When I resort to childhood thoughts
of nature's magick ways,
the happiness that fills my heart
can carry me for days.
I go outdoors and smell the air
and feel the grass below,
Lay on the earth, look through the trees
and that is when I know.
The universe with all its stars,
that just hang in the sky,
and the thought that without gravity
that then I too could fly.
I hear and smell and feel and know
and with my heart I see,
That all the things I love so much
are all a part of me!

Mystical
Mountains
The mountains' colors are of a pastel rainbow,
Shades of blue, pink, lavender, and yellow.
Mother Earth's creation stands graciously beneath the clouds;
And when night falls, the mountains form a mystical shroud.
The Lord of the Sun shines his rays at the break of dawn,
Just when the morning dew glistens on the forest lawn.
As the sun sets against the mountain's white snow,
The Lady's silver jewel stands alone with a brilliant glow.

MOON SHADOWS
Just as soon as it gets dark
I hear a calling that I must hark
I go outside to where the light doesn't reach
For I have come to teach
The moon shadows how to dance
They come from near and far
Shimmery and shiny like a bright new star
Dark and night
But so bright
They outdo the moon
They surround me all the time
Always talking in a rhyme
Fast and slow!
There they go!
To dance the night away
