When the trees are crowned with leaves, And dressed in ribbons fair, The songs of the birds fill the bush, I place the springtime flowers in my hair. I celebrate the coming of Spring, In my own special way, Becoming a part of the beauty, I absorb myself in the day. I can feel the ancient rhythms, Taking hold in my heart, Communing with Nature, Celebrating the season's start. Beneath an endless sky, I feel like the ancient ones, With garlands and ribbons in their hair, Dancing, celebrating, my heart is overrun. Overrun by the unparalelled beauty, That comes but once a year, All the land, trees and plants, Are born anew. I skip along the pathways, Leading down to the sea, Picking wildflowers along the way, The scent of sea air caressing me. I hear the ocean breathe, It exhales upon the shore, It's gentle sounds a melody, No tempest to endure. Listening I know the truth, 'Tween the rocks the wind does wail, I've found the existance of peace, Hiding behind the veil. Beneath the Gravilles flowers, Amidst the native trees, I give you now my thoughts and feelings, And all their mysteries. May the world hug you today, With it's warmth and love. I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart, That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world, Wishing you well and wishing you love...... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

Hey, you really outdid yourself on this one. I especially loves these lines, "I hear the ocean breathe," "It exhales upon the shore," I grew up near the ocean and you make me hear it, even though I'm almost 2000 miles away. |
