upon the field crow's shadow cast lightning flashes o'er trembling oaks through the din of pipes and armour her shrilling from the swollen grey seals our fates still onward we trudge to battle to death |

Ah The Morrighan - if you are interested in her there is a lovely picture of her at www.enchanted-art.com Jessica Galbreth is a wonderful artist. She does many Goddesses, mythical creatures, faeries etc You captured her beautifully by the way. Raven xo "Is it safe inside your head |

While The Crows Waited Through the glens in the night, blades blackened or hidden from sight, nettle flogged legs to give some heat, still the damned hoarfrost nipped at my seat, crossing the river and mounting the dale by morning ready to strike. O'er the crest we came with the dawn, war pipes awailing like the Ban'Sihde, the dogs were loosed the blades were drawn; we came to die or live to be free and fell on them at Ballantrae; the cry was havoc, the shout was heard last remnant of the spoken word. Morrighu! Morrighu! Morrighu! |

Yes, it is. I put it here just to tell my friend Raph that I remember the same battle. |

They are both brilliant. A friend of mine is rather fond of the Morrighan - will be sure to tell her to check them out! Raven |
