Unsinkable

I am an introduction
To a Broadway production
Including seduction
Living eruption
End your corruption
No need for destruction
No more with disruption
You’ll reap repercussion
Where is your protection
This is a reflection
What’s with all the aggression
Save your deception
No more oppression
I know how obsessive
I can’t help I’m so restless
How can this be so infectious
Try not to be reckless
I come with correctness
Excuse my directness
Just flowing with freshness
Don’t make me put up the defenses
You’ll dislike the consequences
Your fate is ominous
You can’t touch my opulence
On full reconnaissance
In it for full providence
This is my apocalypse
There is no dominance
Only perfect eminence
Ending your malevolence
It takes intelligence
To achieve excellence
Wanting full residence
You must walk with benevolence
Thankful for deliverance
Stow the ignorance
Before nothing is left in existence
Where is the assistance
How is that for a witness
It’s all ready been written
Sick of the system
No more playing victim
Full of wisdom
Lost in a rhythm
It’s beyond religion
Just use intuition
It will be the ammunition
To use in this demolition
Time for ignition
A new tradition
As we transition
Into this new system
Without resistance
Let’s get down to business
I’ll bring the provisions
You supply the visuals
A powerful ritual
To a whole new beginning
It’s official
Not artificial
Maybe habitual
Very unconditional
How’s that for principal
Nothing biblical
All formidable
We all are individual’s
How subliminal
All original
Not a criminal
Very unpredictable
Simply inexplicable
Don’t do the unthinkable
Just be ever unsinkable

May The Goddess Shower You With Her Blessings On This Beautiful Monday Morning!

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.

—Arietta Bryant, Ramblings & Rhymes

Bright Blessings

Earth Mother
Giver of life
Strengthen me during my life-long strife.
Teach me Your ways of perfect love,
peace, and wisdom true.
Spawn from my purest heart
These words to You
May this prayer help me to better
myself in word and deed,
To a higher plane I shall succeed.
Beautiful Light of Goodness Fair
Lore of old we both do share
A Witch’s brew, I drink to You
My love for You, by day, by night
In thought and in sight
Will my soul learn
the meaning of this life again.

The Maiden Awakes

The Earth stirs from her winter slumber
Snowdrops peep through the snow-crusted soil
Autumn’s harvest left her tired
So all winter she has slept, resting after her toil
And now it is time for her to emerge
To waken again in the growing light
To coax out the crocuses, and daffy-down-dillies
To stretch to the sun after such a long night
And though the wind in the trees is still blowing
And the rain clouds have not yet gone
We know that the Maiden is awake
And Spring won’t be far along.

Ode to the Goddess

Who is the Goddess?
Who is she to me?
All the women I love,
My Mother, Me! All of us Goddesses,
Goddesses all!
She comes to us all
We must only call
In childhood laughter
In children’s games
She is the one with a
thousand names. Isis,
Astarte, Demeter, and more,
She is Gaia, the earth’s very core
She sings in the breeze
And the leaves on the trees
She is the keeper of birds and of
bees
The Goddess is part of all of us
you see
She’s in everybody, I feel her
in me!

—Arietta Bryant, Ramblings & Rhymes

Touch the lintel and touch the wall,
Nothing but blessings here befall!
Bless the candle that stands by itself,
Bless the book on the shelves,
Bless the hearth and the light shed.
Brothers, Sisters, Farmily, Friends,
Who tarry here, let them know
A three fold blessing before they go.
The Mother’s comfort, love & peace
Will always be found here
Faith in yesterday and tomorrow.
Brothers, Sisters, Farmily, Friends,
Who go from here, let them bear
The blessing of hope, wherever they fare.
Lintel and windows, sill and wall,
Nothing but good, this place befall.

And though the wind in the trees is still blowing
And the rains clouds have not yet gone

And spring won’t be far along

Where Once I Walked This Hidden Road

Where once I walked this hidden road
I now see light and sky
This was the path of secrecy and
always had been so
But now this path the world can see
If they know where to look, they
can follow it with me
The trees surrounding me are
still as strong
Their trunks are ever wide
But now between them are shafts
of light and sunshine fills the sky
Where once I walked this hidden road
I now see light and sky
So who did spread this truth about,
who told the world and did not lie?
So many of us now tell our tales
Of how to find the forest’s hidden trail
And so the secret now is shared
And those who know it need not be scared
Some walk together, some walk alone
But all of us walk in to the unknown
Where once I walked this hidden road
I now see light and sky
And in my very soul I know,
I will walk this path until I die
Though the end of this road is rarely
in sight It is sometimes glimpsed in the dead of light
When Hecate’s veil begins to lift
And she offers to us that greatest gift
And when I am embraced in her
arms so tight
I know I will be back here again…
Where once I walk this hidden road.

—Arietta Bryant, Ramblings & Rhymes

We Are Witches All

We sing and dance and hold our rites,
We live and love together.
We go sky-clad or wear our outer robes
If it is chilling weather.
About the altar we do dance;
We praise The Gods
We love and ever do, we give
Our thanks to the sun.
And moon above, We are The Craft;
Love The Craft; We are Witches All.
Join us.. In Our Circle For We Are Witches All.
Walk into our Circle and feel the love Bound,
And Meet The Lord and Lady who guide us in our Rounds;
” An’ Harm None, Do What Thou Wilt.”
It is The Wiccan Rede.
We fear no foe for love we show,
In thought and also Deed.
Our words of thanks, our songs of praise,
We offer them in pray’r.
We sing their praise, we ask their help;
We know that they are there.

~* ~ Time and Again ~* ~

Time goes by,
So fast, so slow;
Just as the phases
Of the bright moon’s glow.
Time goes by,
So fast, so slow;
We plant a seed,
And watch it grow.
Time goes by,
So fast, so slow;
The magic moves
Through energy’s flow
Time goes by,
So fast, so slow;
The Goddess is alive
As we all know.
Time goes by,
So fast, so slow;
Love warms our hearts
As the cool winds blow.
Time goes by,
So fast, so slow;
The Witches chant
“As above, so below,”
Time goes by….

Circle Power

I stand before the Goddess as her daughter
My head bowed before her love and light
I do not stand alone
My Sisters stand with me
My family stands with me
The Witches from the past are present
I humbly ask for her presence in my home
I raise my hands and extend love to all
I ask the Goddess to send her protection to me
I ask her to encircle my home
I ask her to hold me close

With the power of my Circle, I cast out evil.
Return it to its source.
With the power of the Goddess, I cast out pain.
Return it to its source.
With the power of the Witches, I cast out hate.
Return to its source.

I turn East
I turn South
I turn West
I turn North

Under the Fullness of the Moon my home is safe
Under the Fullness of the Moon I am safe
Under the Fullness of the Moon my family is safe
Under the Fullness of the Moon my Sisters are safe

The Goddess holds me and I am safe….
Blessed Be

—JoAnne Spiese, A Witch’s Prayerbook

I Saw Something Beautiful

I saw something beautiful today.
I was sitting by a tree
along a wooded path,
when I heard two lovers talk
as they came near me
along the wooded path.
She said she hoped he’d never go
until she’d passed away
for she was to weak to go alone
and he said that he’d not go
until her life was gone
because she was his morning
and she was his sun.
That she’d never face a day alone.
What love this couple has I thought
As these endearing words I caught.
I envisioned them as lovers in a fairy tale,
Him tall and dark, her small and pale.
So when they chanced to pass my way
I looked to see such young lovers.
But this is what I saw,
an elderly man with eyes now dim
an elderly lady accompanying him.
This is what I saw,
The beauty of an ageless love
Blessed by Goddess above
Endless even in old age.
And somehow I knew there was no gage
By which to measure this
My wish for them is one of eternal bliss.
Yes, I saw something beautiful today
And I’m better for it crossing my way.

The Goddess is Alive

Moon shines down upon a sea of Light,
Shifting sands lay singing in the Heart of the Night.
I looked upon a scene that gripped me to the core,
White-clad maidens below were dancing on the shore.

Sweet sounds slipped from moon-lit throats,
Wind whipped hair abound,
Lit by the light within and without,
The Women circled ’round.

As I stood, water engulfed my feet,
My body swayed to your Heavenly Heart beat.
Wind and wave and fire light,
Paled in my mind Earthly delight.

Time slipped by me as you held your embrace,
And windblown spray covered my face.
Protected deep within your Womb,
I could feel the tender pain of Life’s bloom.

Candles flared high as the Dance progressed,
Deep inside with a healing touch you blessed.
All around, wind, wave and fire shouted of your life,
Your light speared deep within, soothing my strife.

Divine Mother, Goddess of Light,
To you I come seeking protection from the night.
Come home to shelter within your arm,
Surrounded by Love, hidden from harm.

Holy Mother, Queen of Heaven and Earth,
From you we all trace our Birth.
Heavenly Goddess, light from above,
Shine down upon us, we pray for your Love.

Dedication to the Goddess

The Goddess brings us no more or
less than we are to her
She is the power for us to find
ourselves
She is the light that guides our
ways
She is the hand that extends when
we are lost
She finds our heart and soul
For she knows what we hide
She bears all for us
For she is Mother and we are child

—JoAnne Spiese, A Witch’s Prayerbook

~* ~ Soul Sister ~* ~

It is like looking into a mirror.
Our souls seem as one;
Split long ago,
But now reunited alas!

Our power combined
Is untamable and raw.
Our balance of light and dark
Is utterly perfect.

The world is ours to conquer,
And we are coming with a vengeance!
Beware to all to stand in our way!
For we are unstoppable!

Elizabeth Gardiepy

By The Light Of The Crystal Moon: A Book of Pagan Poetry and Short Stories

Dedicated to all of our Familiar  that we have and those that have passed on. They are our best friends, the ones that knows us best and love us dearly. Even though some has passed on, they touched our heart with love unbound and we will never forget them.

~* ~ Familiar Dreams ~* ~

Truth

I always ask
Why it is that you hide
Under lies
Why live like a hypocrite
You know no truth
In line for destruction
The blood guilt
Has reached the peak
All I can say is
Don’t like the law of the land
Go elsewhere
Make sure to take
The hatred and darkness
The light belongs to those
Who walk in love
There is no hate in love
Love is divine
Which walks in the light
Now who’s walking in truth
So easy to judge
I’ve given you proof
We all know what happens
We’ve heard it before
Until the end
The choices we make
We will reap
Even to the point of weeping
It’s all on you
You decide
How much karma
Will weigh against you
In the end
We all pay
For this thing
You call sin
In light and love
Is where truth dwells
So do wise
Make sure you are walking
In divine light and love
How is that for a truth
Now take that to your church
