Prayers & Spells

StarsStars
Prayers and spells
and tiny bells,
be used to conjure
notions.
Eye of newt,
and orrisroot,
powders, tinctures,
potions.

Incense burning,
candles glowing,
when moon is bright
and full.
Emotions rising,
with baptizing
as ocean tides
do pull.

The secrets of
lost ages past,
from skies to Earth
below,
have come to me,
from powers be,
for me to learn
and grow.


“We are borne of star dust,
and to the stars we shall one day return.”

Have a beautiful afternoon my friend.

If you need any part of a toad... may I volunteer some of the human variety? LOL (I know, I know... I'm bad girl LOL)

I can't imagine any hands I'd trust more with spells than those belonging to a heart such as yours... even if that does mean I can't ask you for evil potions. *G*

Enjoyed this very much!!!!

Loved this!  A kind and gentle version of "Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble!"  

It makes me smile from ear to ear, at how well you sound, and hopefully are.

Owl Owl ~

I enjoyed your comments!

~ and yes I am feeling much better. As far as my eyes are doing, the weekly laser surgeries on the back of my eyes have been saving my sight! I have been going to the hospital every week for surgery. I have another one tomorrow and hopefully the one scheduled for next week will be the last of them! Yippy eye kye yay! Cheerleader

It looks like the spells and the flowers have been working! Flirty

(smiles) Yay! Oh Linda, your poetry and heart has such a way in summoning the spirits and voices of the ancients like a phoenix rising from the ashes in firefly brilliance, yay! (kiss on cheek) I am fascinated by all kinds of magics and trances and prayers, and in my dreams I always see and hear all these fascinations, often from my dream girl, yay! This is beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Hi, sky!

Your'e a pet! I know you did! But it was nice to hear it a second time!

For that I will conjure up some spring spells that will bless you with two wishes that will come true!

I am going to work some magic in your life! Your dream girl will not only be appearing in your dreams!  Magic Wand
