fly-by-nite lighthouse
beltane, 2005
The Source of all being, continuum timeless.

The ground of existence, rhyming and rhymeless.

Today we honor your limitless love, Your limitless freedom and limitless trust,

O unity of sky’s spirit and earth’s dust.

* * *

The Goddess on the hillside
on a sunlit morn,
bathing Her body in the mists;
She trills out a tune to the infinite;
She sings of yearning and bliss.
Her voice calls the fervor of Her love-
His presence She insists
She beckons him sweetly to rendezvous to fulfill all that exists...

Dance to the song of the hillside Goddess and she will lie with thee;
the dew and the flowers and the daylight’s gleam welcome summer’s jubilee;
spring is complete and summer nearby,
dance with your passion,
dance down from the sky
join with your lover by the hillside stream
kindling the fires of life Her decree.

For WaCUUPs on April 30, 2005 and part of "Beltane & Balance." Spring is probably my favorite time of year. There's nothing better than the time when it is about to give birth to summer, just before the Texas heat sets in to stay.
