Mother Moon

Before you could speak,

you knew Me:

guide, ally,

your Mother,

nurturing growth.

I share your fertile powers,

your well-spring of well-being.

I mirror your emotions changing.

I count your days holy.

I set your calendar of celebration,

showing you cycles

moving through all things.

I teach integrity, imagination,

the wisdom of embracing opposites.

I encourage letting go,

and diving deep.

I remind you to fall back

into authenticity,

to recharge your energy

in darkness

to spring forward.

You forget so much,

imprisoned now by fear

in sterile boxes.

Join hands again,

outdoors, sky-clad,

and dance a fearless ring

around the light and dark,

the Mystery

of My round changing face

of Love.
