Lammas Picnic

The summer here, the light is bright. Partying both day and night

Warmth in the air, warmth from the ground, even warmth from the street walls

How beautiful a time and space, everything with eternal grace.

"My how the sun shines on your face!"

Blessings of warmth and harmony. Blessings bright

Music drifting on the breeze

Whether you are big or small

In summer we all stand tall

Growing up is so hard to do

However when that sky is blue, everyone celebrates life so true.

Greetings from a hidden place

"Come here with your eternal grace"

"Enjoy and be merry, the time has come, to be as one!"

 

 

 

the Mysteries of Ostara

as the wheel turns once more

life becomes ever sure

Tender steps of Imbolc time

Have led us here to celebrate

To celebrate life in all Her glory

To tell that ever-lasting story

Of life's young blood

Ever growing ever knowing

Of flowers making bold bright songs

Heralding spring is where daffodil belongs

As Ostara's touch upon the world

Brings colours bright

Let's life spring into being

She opens Her heart to the new

she holds tight fast to what she knew

She grows in wisdom each and every day
Each day and night we pray
For the rebirth of the spring
To breathe life into everything
May the Sun shine ever bright
to cast out the darkness of the night
To bring a new day

As the hare looks to the dawn
so life will be reborn
A garland of spring flowers
Like the Lady's mantle
Spreads o'er the earth
to brighten every day
Let the children play
Roll eggs down hills
Paint and eat
chocolate treats are really neat
Eggs in a basket
hold wisdom for sure
Each a dream to become true
hold tight to each and every egg
Nurture each one til it blossoms
Into a blessed dream alive and well
thanks be to the goddess!
Thanks for the Sun
thanks and praises from everyone

The Goddess Ostara

The Goddess Ostara is a wild , wild woman

Dancing by the fireside

the spirit of the Hare is in Her heart

Rebirth and Intuition

As the flames a'flicker

She dances to the beat

Of Her banging drum

Magic is made to the sound of the music

While the Moon looks on

Her feet tread lightly upon the Earth

To help the Great Mother rebirth

Welcome to the New World!

As the drum beats faster

So Ostara does a twirl

Widdeshins She goes

Banishing all the old energies from Her world

Doesil now with vigour 

Giving Her world a new Light

Pink and Orange hue

Tomorrow will be a sky blue

With happiness She closes the circle

Dancing all the while

Looking to the future

With dreamy eyes

Thank You to the Lady

For all Her blessings kind

With gentle heart She kisses the earth

Fertility of mind

Blessed be

The Emerald Isle - Happy St Patrick's Day

With a dance and a cheer,

St Patrick's day is here!

Stout at the ready,

Getting a wee heady!

Giving it large

Joining in on a barge!

"Let's lift Our glasses

And lift Our hearts

To celebrate Eireland in all Her glory!"

The Emerald Isle 

An ancient land

The people a'wandering

Paths of gold

Green lands to behold

Leprechauns a'plenty

With the luck we seek

you'll find them by being meek

The little people's land you see

Fae to you and me!

Brings a magic

To have and hold

True to the Ancient ways

Welcome to the Fae!

Please come and play

Bringing joy and grace

May my heart you embrace!

The green lands of Eireland

With their faerie forts

Their rolling hills and dales

Trees of ancient time still stand

For a better day

With peace and love

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

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

 



A Christian Wiccan prayer....

 

 

It came upon the midnight hour

As all were fast asleep

A star shone bright on sleeping babe

With mother looking on

"Lo and behold, I grant to thee

A Messiah is born,

This night of eternity!"

 

The babe's young eyes

ThaY sparkled bright

Shepherds and lambs

Gathered around

Donkeys baying

With a gentle sound.

 

 

How fine this child

Born to save us all

Bringing together

Big and small

Boi and gurl

Old and young

The time of Christ'mas

Has begun!

 

Let us sing carols

With hearts alight

Sing them morn, noon and night

"Welcome, Welcome little one!"

It is truely now that all has begun

To feel alive

To change the world

To make Us whole

Once more!

 

Thanks be to Father, Son and Holy Spirit

Thanks be to the Mother Mary

Lets clean Our homes from top to bottom

Mop, sweep and dust

Cleanliness is a must

Before the Lord Our Saviour

And celebrate from daaybreak til dusk

And through the hours of darkness

Sit beside the fire

Mulled Wine in hand

Here starts up the band

Making music into the wee hours

Poinsettia flowers

The jasmine smells divine!

Love between Yours and Mine

Spreads through Christ'mas time

Jump up this day

Lets sing and pray

Lets find forgiveness in Our hearts

For One and all

However big or small

Let Our hearts shine on!

 

Holy infant

So tender and mild

Mother speaks so softly

To the child

"Happiness comes in small packages"

Bringing glory to All

Let us hear the Angels call!

Amen
