Imbolc greetings all and a very warm welcome to Chrissy, many thanks, m'lovely lady, for sharing this beautiful poem and your energy.
This completely lifts my heart
The Quickening - for Bridie
Moving from stillness to the fire
Gently unfolding from the quiet
Shush, listen – Bridie calls
Pushing up through entombed dreams
Past slumbering memories of all that is
Stretching, yawning, lingering still …
Eternal seeds sharing Mother's joy
Her children stirring in Her earthy womb
Waking to the returning-time
Feel the thudding of Bridie's rod
Senses turning toward familiar sounds
Getting louder – Bridie calls
Rising through layers of quickening life
Warmly enticed to be new again
Journeying, spiralling, from the dark
Up, up into the dawn
Where snowdrops dare to be reborn
And gestating thoughts ignite
Unfurl towards the welcoming light
Shake the webs in the cool, fresh air
Myriad souls will greet you there
Louder still now – Bridie calls
Be new again
This world is yours
Hail and Welcome
From the maiden queen
Who weaves the willows of creation
Alchemical soul of inspiration
Of sacred wells and healing flame
Of poetry and reincarnation
She who called me to Avalon
The first to teach me we are one
Loud and clearly - Bridie called.
Chrissy Heaven
