Literature Text

I ask of Earth,
the power that helps living things grow,
I ask that you nurture, solid and true,
And help me to grow too,

I ask of Air,
the element that can make blood stir and fingers chill,
I ask that you swirl, wild and true,
And make my blood stir too,

I ask of Fire,
the force that warms the heart and burns things anew,
I ask that you smolder, bright and true,
And burn my insecurities and make me new too,

I ask of Water,
the nature forges new paths and pushes through,
I ask that you bubble, clear and true,
And help me push a way down my path too,

I ask of Spirit,
the essence that binds us all together; tree, stream, rock and me,
I ask that you bond, strong and true,
Bind me with Mother Earth, and give me strength to go through.
I wrote this in the middle of a walled garden, surrounded by trees. Even though there are roads surronuding the wall, I couldn't hear the traffic at all.

This is pretty personal to me, I have a feeling I'll use it at one of the 8 Pagan celebrations, in the near future.

But, this is also for everyone who needs a little help in life.

Blessed Be

xXx
