Pumpkins lit and burning bright

Jack o'lanterns shine through the night

Fire sprites gather with sparkling eyes

Ladies dressed in black

Forever and a day

With fire and light

Picnics for families with children who play

In golden hay and grass

Loving the blessing of a new world

The Hedge Druid gathers the ears of corn 

From first harvest cut

To make the Corn Dolly fine

To bring fertility back

Kept for months of wintertime to bury again at Imbolc

As we plant again next year

Telling of Her might

With thanks for summer's loving blessing

Of shared union divine

Innocence is ever there

For those who honour woman

With blessings of the swan's a swimming

With blessings of the Unicorn

The Lammas Angel shines on high

With golden locks so fine

Her heart an ever-knowing presence

Her eyees a pure delight

With gracious gifts of innocence and might

Blessed Be!

Here comes the rain again!

Here comes the rain again!

Falling on my head like a memory

Wish to dive into your ocean

Are you dreaming with me?

The summer sun hides behind the clouds

Suddenly the rain begins to fall

Powering drops at the Earth below

Washing away all our worries
Streaming down creating puddles
Children dance and play
Isn't the world so gay?
Wonders of heaven to behold
Now the story has been told
Greater things to come
Dancing on in the sun
Sunshine after the rain
I see bluebirds flying over the mountains again
Sunshine on a rainy day
Makes my soul trip trip away

Rainbows shining in the heavens
Glory of the Lord
Happy days are here again
Golden world
The light of Ana filling the world
Colour everywhere
Bright and glorious 
Great and true
Let's gaze at that sky so blue
How do I find my pot of gold?
Search and seek 
Dip and dive
Bury your self deep in the Earth
Caves and crystals you will find

Shining light o'er all the world
For the Angels to shine!
Clouds drift across the moon
A different light is coming soon
The stars and moon shine of the Lady's grace
Lighting up your little face
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are?
Shining in the sky above
O'er this blessed world with love
Within the wings of a dove
What love!

Beltane Morn

On a delightful day like this, sun shining, breeze in your face. You start to appreciate the true meaning of PEACE! After all the furore of spring Equinox with Artha, the great She-bear in Our hearts and the Warrior Spirit strong during the time of Aries (linked to the planet Mars)
We deserve a break, a time to rest and recuperate, to look to the future with happiness and delight at the summer ahead. Bright sun on this day of the year, the blessed Beltane, is a wondrous blessing on your world! With summer in our hearts and minds we look to the warmth of the Father Sun, that great and wondrous being of light that cares deeply for Our souls! Fatherly energy represents protection, strength, purpose, poise and brings the loving arms of Our Father to us in the light of the day.

It is always a great blessing to wake in the morning after a good night's sleep rested and restored to celebrate life. Life is everything we know and love and the Sun's light brings a colourful new day at dawn. As the dawn breaks and the world begins to stir, all the beings of the planet unite in one purpose - TO LIVE THEIR LIVES! This is something we can all gel on! Life is a reality that unites us all on this planet. The "All That Is" in the essence of the heavens is a positive and vibrant influence on Our mindfulness. Along the lines of the Butterfly Effect, where it is said that a butterfly flapping it's wings in the rainforest could cause something positive to happen elsewhere on this planet such as a summer storm!!
The "All That Is" is the coherent knowledge and wisdom of all of us in positive thought, word and deed. It is however energetic filled with prayerfulness and great in it's essence. ALL THAT IS! Understood by all of us as being a guide to Our worlds. The humanitarian viewpoint of seeing there to be such a presence in the heavens is a good one. Life as we know it is greatly influenced by the positive guidance of our fellow man or woman or child. So a presence in the heavens that is like a memory of ALL THAT IS! allows us to reach deeper than ever before into beautiful worlds of happiness. We are truly guided by the light of the Heavens always and mankind has much to teach! Everything good that is done by Us is remembered by the heavenly ones and joins into One little world in the heavens above where it is protected by the Lord and Lady's hearts and minds. The All Seeing Eye of the Lord and Lady knows all we ever do and I feel that the Great Beings of heaven above wish to remember all Our good bits!! WE are able to teach Our own family and friends however the presence of the ALL THAT IS means everyone who is prayerful of heaven and Earth will know tha truth when they need to. Meditation is a powerful thing! As we sit quietly in meditation we are touched by the heavens above and all Our prayers are answered as we begin to rise spiritually. Spirituality is a great aspect of Life!

With the summer beginning we are able to see that Our prayers for a brighter day have become real blessings to Our world. This is the most peaceful time of the year and the summer of love ahead is protected by the peace of Beltane's morn. Thank you to all those who pray to keep this so. Peace is LIFE! Life is PEACE! Love UNITES. Unite with LOVE!

Colour is magical!

O'er hill and dale

The green grass grows 

All around!

Where'ere they grow

Colour doth abound

With happiness in heart

Bringing delicate nature

To Our worlds!

The blue sky fills with fluffy clouds

Gently they drift by

White upon the face of the heavens

With some news of life divine

Silver linings 
Golden sunshine filtering through the leaves
Green hue to the forest
Bright red berries of autumn
Golden yellows of spring
Heralding a new age
Healing and everyting

The world of pure delight
Beauty in the eye of the beholder
Gentle and pure
Spring has sprung all around
Let's gather together and pray!

And lift Our hearts

To celebrate Eireland in all Her glory!"

The Emerald Isle

Imbolc musings!

The Muse is in my heart this night

Wending Her merry way

Through my world, my life, my heart

Bringing peace divine

Looking through the Looking Glass

Alice and the White Rabbit

Run through my mind

Spreading bounds of joy

For every little girl and boy

I see a new Me with heightened perception

Of all I've come to be

Alive and well

With a story to tell

Of ancient times alive

Of walking the worlds of darkness and light

Through the day and throughout the night

Giving me excitement

Of changing things for the better

Bees buzzing round the hive

"Let's sing and be alive"

Great soul-Jah's tales of victory

For the world of Light

Of Lady and Lord

Those delicate etheric cords

 Linking spirit and soul to the heavens

May light fill your world

May the heavens behold

All that is true and good

May blood warm

May souls unite

To make the world bright this night!

Blessed be

Peace!

 

Peace

 

With arms raised praising the heavens

Singing songs of peace and love

The essence of the Dove

Doth fly in Our hearts and minds

Great days to come

"It's all peace and love, man!"

Hippies unite

 

 

 

May the Earth be blessed

With good people who respect and honour

Bringing joy to the world

Thanking One another for the gift of help

We dance Our "Spiral Dance"

Creating as We go

Changing Life as We know it

While the wind doth blow

 

"Wind eh ah ho

Wind eh ah ho

Ah ahh ahh

Ho Ho Ho

Ja Ja Ja"

 

 

 

The tribal Ones are together

Gathered for pow-wow

Talking sense

Singing peace

Dancing for the Sun

Praying for the Moon

 

The Light doth shine

Upon Your face

Bringing out Your eyes of gold

Your hair it glows

With the love inside

 

 

 

Wonder at this world

Of glory to behold

Understanding all to come

In one flash of light

How will We live upto Our destiny

By keeping as One

In peace, love and harmony!

 

Thanks be!

Blessed Be

 



The Spirit of the COW!

 

The Spirit of the COW!

The cow a blessed creature symbolises all we know about the Goddess in Her Mother aspect. There be stories in Ancient Eireland that talk of three magical cows coming to the shore, one white (the Maiden), one red (the Mother) and the other black (the Crone). Although all aspects of the Goddess are represented here, the Cow symbolises everything We know of Motherhood most of all.

She nurtures, She cares
She cAtches Us unawares
She gives and receives
She runs through the leaves
She gathers, She collects
An abundance of things
Life is what She brings!

This little poem shows Us just how important a Mother is!!
The Mother Goddess gives Her life for Her children and is always happy to do so!!
In my experience children give you so much back with their little hearts, just a smile in the morning or a joyful laugh and I'm happy they're happy!!
Motherhood is such a joy for a woman and to me the Cow symbolises joy everlasting! Cows seem to walk about with a smile upon their faces and exude happiness and forgiveness.
Forgiveness is the "Key to Life" I've always felt!
So in this way Cows are a vital aspect to all We know and love! The Cow has so much to teach Us about how to be good people. They live together happily in large numbers, for a small field and are always seen to gather at watering holes.
This community living is a wonderful way for us Humans to be and learn from!
The Cow really does represent PEACE in it's true essence!
The peaceful and giving nature of the Cow shows Us how We can all live together happily and help to provide for Our families and One another.
By lending a hand and by giving practical help or even giving of Our work some how we can all provide for the starving, poor and needy people in this sad, sad World of Ours!

Peace is such a vital aspect of Life to truly appreciate the Human being in their best and only true nature!
How can We look at this World of Ours seeing war and famine and suffering of any kind without ACTING in some peaceful way to put it right!!

The Cow brings blessings in "Abundance"!!
Although as a VEGE-head I only see the Cow as a friend who lives happily around me, their Sacredness to Human has been revered in INDIA always.
Happily the people of BUDDHA hold the gentleness of the Cow as most important to it's nature and also live like I do, in true respect of the animal's FR-REEDOM!
Nice peeps!!

With Motherhood comes responsibility and the Cow and Her male Bull both show great protection to their young and loved One! The Bull will stand strong in the face of "Foe" and will charge at invaders when need be!
However the Cow is ALL Goddess' and remains protective in peace of the young and old. Woman could do much by learning of this blessed duality and the sacredness of the TRUST between Cow and Bull!

I feel this animal really epitomises the Goddess at Her best in all Her four aspects while living the Life of a Mother!
This teaches Us wimmin that Life begins with being a Mother whatever age that is for you!
Life has so much to offer Us in motherhood and the Goddess knows that! After all, the planet We live on that gives Us LIFE itself, is a MOTHER GODDESS, the MOTHER EARTH!

Thanks for reading mi lil prose, I hope you enjoyed mi rant!!
With joy I bring you a painting of the Cow I found on the net!

 

 

 



New Year blessing!

May life be good to You always,

May people be dear to Your soul,

May abundance come to You,

And joy be ever after,

May Your world be full of laughter!

 

Blessings of Love and Light,

Blessings of prosperity and health,

Blessings of love everlasting

Of wisdom, Grace and wealth!

Be Yours forevermore!

 

 

May family be kind and generous

In spirit and heart and mind,

May You feel close to loved Ones

Morning, noon and night.

May the Sun shine and the Moon restore your being

May the Lord's eye be all-seeing

To protect and bless your World

A glory to behold!

 

Amen,Blessed Be
