THREE IN ME
 
Sometimes I'm a maiden running free
Rockin and rollin in fantasy
Gathering the blossoms of coming spring
With the promises of kisses 
My beloved does bring.
 
Sometimes I'm Mother full and round
Nesting and cooking and tilling the ground
Nurturing babies and giving them life
Celebrating my children.  
I've lived the good life.
 
Sometimes I am wise, I know I'm the Crone
I see the thread and the seeds we have sown
Watching and healing, transforming with sound
Praise be to the Goddess:
Three in me unbound!


SUMMER SOLSTICE


Solstice Sunrise
Morning Star Setting
I remember my Father
And honor him this day
Eastern Sky
Blushes pink roses
Sun upon the water
The river
The gulf
Fruits and seeds are harvested
The sun is withen us!
I give thanks

Summer Blue
 
Oh Grief my new friend
I never knew
That humans could feel
Such a mighty emotion.
 
No words can touch
That visceral place
The canyon within us
Which knows no bottom.
 
I am a deep well
Filling with fire
A slow and cold burn
My mother is gone.
 
Tears on my pillow
On my sleeve
In my workplace
Come unannounced.
 
Oh moon you are waning 
Pulling my tear tides
On to that dark place
Where comfort abides.
 
My friends and my family
Are here for each other
My mother is free now
But I am forlorn.

Oh Mother of Darkness
You cover me gently
And whisper inside me
My Mother is near.
 
I walk in the wind gales
And see summer fading
Even though 
It has just begun.
 
And so is our passing
Like clouds that are racing
Across the blue sky 
Before the night falls.
 
Oh Nature, Great Mother
Please hold me and guide me
And help me find comfort
In nature and  sea.
 
And let me give solace
To others who need it
For your Priestess and Midwife
I continue to be.
