"Reverence"

Reverence in living form

Dewdrop petals

Blackened trees

Silver ponds

A haloed moon

Elden woods of old

Prayers long forgotten told

Her presence fills her children

"Depart from darkened dreams my little ones-

For we are not apart"

"Joyful song be sung

Our Goddess has returned

Be with us forever and for always

So that we may learn

To live

And love

And hope

And grow

All your greatest wisdom shown

To your precious ones"

She smiled upon her children

Giving them all they could need

In seeing their joy she called to them

And spoke, "Blessed be"
