****just wanted to say on this joyful day, happy Imbolc to those here in the southern half..and happy Lammas to those in the northern half! Blessed Be to all!**** She has blessed this parchment and pen and given me divine inspiration She has healed my wounds that lay within By nurturing and unleashing my imagination The windows are warmed by blessed candlelight And the winter begins its melt towards spring And the fire in my soul burns strong and bright All gifts sweet Brighid doth bring The days lay close when gardens soon grow For today her womb carries the seeds Her union with Sun will bring a new glow That will release the Earth from her freeze So if you be poet,or healer, or smith May your hands and heart be blessed Be thankful for all your bountiful gifts And your muse shall never take rest! So mote it be! |
