But anyway, here is a little tidbit I jotted down while waiting for interviews. It made me smile.
The Witching Hour
The night is filled by the cries of crows
Through the cemetary a chill wind blows
Mist crawls and creeps along the ground
Trees sway making eerie sounds
The moon rides high casting her silver light
All is ready, tonight's the night
Stoke the fire, keep it hot
Fill the cauldron, stir the pot
For by the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes
Grab your broom and take to the sky
Rejoice, for the witching hour is nigh
Because at this time of year I feel especially close to her, here is a chant honoring The Morrigan that I found at Casting the Runes :
Honoring The Morrigan
She the Queen of spirits,
She, the mistress of the night,
Lady of the darkworld,
Shapeshifter, raven and shadow,
She the harbinger of fate,
She the keeper of the gate,
She the mistress of all wyrd,
She the washer at the ford
Protector of the sacred land
The sacrifice She claims,
I give respect to Morrigan
The ruler of the slain.
She, the mistress of the night,

This is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat's just a tidbit you just jotted down?? It's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much=).
ReplyDeleteMy best friend always used to want to kill me when we were in college and took a poetry course together. I would write my assignments as everyone else was presenting theirs and still get an A. Drove her nuts.
I can do quick and slightly insightful, but I'm horrible at epic. Someday I hope to correct that.
A little tidbit? It would take me 3 days to write something like that. LOL
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful.
