Wonderful song! This was the first Hymn she wrote to the Lady. She sang it to her on the Full Moon. Thank you for the entry!

Hymn To The Goddess
Over the hill, sweetly lay,
Draped in flowers.
Silent and still, Lady of Night,
Lady of hours.
Darkness and light, ever entwined,
Everlasting.
Pale face of white, looking below,
Looking and asking:
"What do you see, childe of mine,
Childe of Summer?
What could there be stealing your breath,
Stealing your drummer?"
There in the wood, I spoke no words,
I gave no answer.
Silent I stood, gazing above,
Gazing at her.
"You steal my breath, capture my heart,
My imagination.
Beautiful death, bless me with love,
Bless me with transformation."
Then o''re my face, breezeless light,
Silvered kisses.
There in that place, changed by the sight,
Changed by my mistress.
"Lady alone, beautiful Child,
Ever-loving Mother,
Wise, knowing Crone, Promise of life....
Promise of another...
Moon.
