RHYMING CHARGE OF THE GODDESS
|
|
|
|
I am the harmonious tune of the songbird
|
|
And the laughter of a gleeful child.
|
|
I am the bubbling sound of the running brook
|
|
And the scent of the flowers wild.
|
|
|
|
I am the floating leaf upon the breeze
|
|
And the dancing fire in the forest glade.
|
|
I am the sweet smell of rains upon the soil
|
|
And the rapture of passion when love is made.
|
|
|
|
I am the germination of seed in the Spring
|
|
And the ripening of wheat in the Sun.
|
|
I am the peaceful depth of the twilight
|
|
That soothes the soul when day is done.
|
|
|
|
I am found in the twinkling of an aged eye...
|
|
And found in the birth of a newborn pup...
|
|
Yes...Birth and Growth and Death, am I
|
|
I am the gracious Earth, on whom you sup.
|
|
|
|
I am your sister, your mother, the wise one.
|
|
I wrap you gently in the warmth of my love.
|
|
That which you seek you shall find within:
|
|
Not without...not below...not above!
|
|
|
|
Remember always, my children, be reverent
|
|
Be gentle, loving and kind to each other
|
|
And hold sacred the Earth and its creatures
|
|
For I am the Lady, Creatrix and Mother!
