The Goddess Speaks
These are the words of the Great Mother.
She is the one who is always there for you
She is the one whom we and only we can determine.
She is the calling.
This is her time to shine,
Your time to shine.
I am naught but a mother,
Caring and compassionate,
But in need of my own love, and lustful.
This is my advice to you.
That you shall carry my torch
And you shall follow my light to the end of time.
I am that which none can see.
I am the only tree in the desert.
I love you all
And you shall love me as I love you.
This is the way of the Wise Woman.
This is your way. I share your body as you
Share in my spirit of life.
This is my charge to you.
Be kind to all and love and be free.
There are times when this world is a barren place,
But in the barren, you shall find me.
I will always be here.
And you shall be my light as I am yours.
