"Winter Is Here" Mystical Philosophy/A Prayer a Day©2010

A Prayer a Day

12/21/10
“Welcome to Winter.” said mother bear to cub.
“The time is come to settle inward.”
“The great cave shall be our bed of slumber.”
 “ Season’s Spring will meet us upon
our return from the Dream Lodge.”
“Sleep my little one... make way
the truth that’s known to silence.”
 Measure for measure.  Breath for breath.
Beat for beat.   Step for step.
Every heart dances for someone.
Every soul reaches toward light.
Calling to lovers to teach the whole world.
Riding the wheel with compassion unfurled.
Designing today with hope and more clarity.
Refining today with wisdom and charity.
Chanting for kindness... hear us...we pray.
Spirits who enter.... this ticking.... space way.
Partnered by  Sun ...Whose fire is camp.
Lunar now full ....eclipsed.... Solstice lamp.
Glow to be  seen...Glow to be hidden...Glow to be seen again.
Ceremonial skies we duly commend.
And our Mother Earth with actions so generous.
Who nurtures us all and feeds us her beauty.
To honor her body it seems to me.
Is the given, the natural, the moral duty.
Listening,
