The dance of the seasonal cycles…
The Winter Solstice arrives at 11:11 am CST in the northern hemisphere in my time zone tomorrow, December 21st! Talk about an incredible portal opening up for the new season!… I will be limiting my time online tomorrow, to be fully present to that significant day.
In celebration of the changing seasons I’m sharing a poem I wrote in 2010 for my first book “Mending Mother Earth with Native Plants”. May the new season bring you more wonders, beauty and infinite love…
Weaving Dance of the Seasons…
Celestial radiance slowly ascending higher,
Rousing Earth’s children from their winter slumber
Symphonies return, enchanting spirits of the Mother
Sprouts of life emerge, transforming all in colour
Cleansing rains fall in rhythm to rolling thunder
Joyful sighs escape the land on wind’s elusive whisper
Peaking heat invigorates growth in bursts of splendour
Tapestries of multi-hued and multi-textured rapture
Mesmerizing melodies flow from life-sustaining water
Glorious rainbows crown the storms that inspire wonder
Heavenly scents delight on wafts from every flower
Resplendent wings enthrall with grace and bliss aflutter
Shining fire’s arch diminishes, impelling birds to gather
Generations born anticipate migrations to endeavour
Seeds of hope cradled on gales, Gaia’s creative gardener
Warm picturesque flora sways, displaying waves of luster
Bountiful stores harvested from the generous Provider
Hearts beat in unison within nature’s perfect order
Snow crystals are diamonds in Light’s brilliant mirror
Long shadows drawn by Tall Ones of serene demeanour
Moonlit landscape echoes songs of a nocturnal brother
Magenta horizons greet dawn and dusk near each other
All hushed in contemplation, filled with resting vigour
Sacred dance weaving its web of One, divine treasure
Wishing you a brilliant Solstice (Winter in the north, Summer in the south)!… ♥
With love and wonder-filled spirit,
Speak Your Mind
