Love of the Goddess

Times in our Lives

There are times in our lives that we feel alone.
There are times in our lives when we stand alone.
There are times in our lives that we sleep alone.
There are times in our lives that we walk alone.

There are people that remain with us during these times.
There are people that remain with us when we feel alone.
There are people that remain with us when there is darkness.
There are people that remain with us when the cold encircles us.

We hear their voices on the wind.
We hear their voices on the waves that rise on the Loch.
We hear their voices as the music from the pipes flow to us.
We hear their voices as the power of the fire rises from the cauldron.
We hear their voices as we stand bared foot on the damp earth and feel the energy rise beneath us.

We close our eyes and feel them come to us.
We bow our head before them.
We feel them enter our souls.
We know the comfort and compassion that they give us.

With eyes open we turn and see that we are encircled by our Sisters.
With eyes open we turn and see the Witches of the past stand with our Sisters.
With eyes open we turn and see the animals as they stand with our Sisters and the Witches of the past.
With eyes open we turn and see the elements rise as they stand with our Sisters, the Witches from the past and the animals most loved.
With eyes open we see her...The Goddess with the moon rays that raise all our powers.She takes our hands and pulls us to her love.
With eyes open we see that we are loved and cared for by those who encircle us this night and all nights.
