The Lady
by Rowan

She appeared to me in her silken best, with flowers 'round her head,
She spoke of dreams and prophesies, while I slept soft  in bed.
My mind it wandered hither, to fields of pale green light,
She led me to a brillant glade, on that very night.
She knelt to look me softly, her eyes they shone so bright,
I stayed with her and looked within, till day gave in to night.
We rested in a rowan tree, her soft gaze to the sky
Her magick coming from the earth, winding, flowing high.
A clear, soft flute rang in the breeze, we danced all of the day,
The wee folk came and joined our ring, in this grand month of May.
The sun shone on the rich green moss, where we invoked his name
I saw him as the high king stag,  as he boldly came.
With brillant horns a' top his head and love that he did share,
he smiled a grin and took a glance and showed he really cared.
And so I walked, side by side of these two gentle friends,
and when I sleep they surely know, what kind of dreams to send.
I bade them well, and journeyed on, to see where my road goes,
and when I woke, I felt their love, and this they surely know.
Lady of the Stars
by Alyssa

I look up to the sky and
I see such a sight that
Takes my breath away
A sight that makes me
Feel I'm not alone and
Their is someone always
Willing and ready to guide me
It is the Lady of the Stars
Her gentle gaze cast
Down to the earth
As she smiles as her
Children honor herself
As the Mother Goddess
A hush hangs about the
World as she makes
Her way through
Majestically she
Hears the ancient
Rituals of the past
Find their way to
Her
The Lady of the Stars
Is the one who was
And who will always be
I see her in the dark of
Night while the
Stars are firing furiously
And their seems ever to be
A shiver of delight
A whisper in my ear
And thus
I know I am in the
Company of the
Lady of the Stars
Words of the Goddess
by Yanesse Avalon

Whenever you are lonely child, I am here.

In the rustle of the leaves and the breath of the wind

In the rush of the stream and the light summer rain

In the cloudy grey morning and the bright, shining sunset

In the silvery moon high on the black night sky

I am a part of you and you are a part of me.

So whenever you are afraid:

Step outside and feel the rustle of the leaves, and the breath of the wind.

Walk in the stream and in the light summer rain.

Look at the cloudy grey sky and watch the bright, shining sunset.

See the silvery moon high in the black night sky.

I am here child, I will never leave you.

You are not alone.
Faeries
by Oracle

Wings the color of a springtime garden.
Hair as lush as the green, green grass.

Spider silk and gossamer robes,
With firefly combs.

Dancing in the moon's silver light
Until the sun shines his face,
And there is light.


The Moon
by Oracle

I am she who hides her face
And sometimes looks down upon you.

I call the tides to me
And push them back again.

I make some mad and
Fill others' heads with dreams.

I am ever changing
From light to dark I move,
Passing from fullness into darkness again,
From night and day and then back again.

I am the Moon
The oldest of them all
The grandmother of time and daughter of the night.
