Handmaiden of the Goddess
- Handmaiden of the Goddess -
Thusly hath my children said of me, in song…
As I shall herein relate, so thou may thus teach,
And keep those faithful, from paths of wrong:
Who keep the Divine Force within their reach!
And so they sang, and herein is their singing,
Made manifest in words and verses of simplicity.
Let the temple bells call out in silvery ringing,
As the music begins, in a magical symphony!
‘Behold ye, the Handmaiden of the Goddess…
Chaste is She of spirit, and pure is She of mind.
In Her glory She is perfect and She is flawless...
Her compassion is unending, She is goodly and kind.
"Be thy will done according to thy holy Word,
The truth of which is ever deep and boundless..."
"May we be blessed, for thy voice we hath heard,
The music of which is eternal and also endless..."
"The Word is eternal, and it dwells amongst us,
In every immortal soul, and in every kind heart..."
"We shall ever strive to heed its’ musings thus,
And render unto the Word, our service’s part."
"Pray for us all, oh thou holy Mother Goddess,
That we may be made worthy: of the joys of thy Kingdom.
Let us pray as one. Let us pray as one."
"Our devotion to thee is ever sincere and ageless,
Our faith in the wonders of the golden age to come!
Let us pray as one. Let us pray as one."
"Pour forth thy grace into our spirits from on high,
That we may be blessed: by thy immortal kiss.
We gather as one. We gather as one."
"Spread thy many great wings, and draw us ever nigh,
Draw us into thy Realm, and into its’ ceaseless bliss.
We gather as one. We gather as one."
"Pour forth, we beg thee, oh thou Lady most fair,
Thy love: into every heart of every living soul.
We love thee as one. We love thee as one."
"We do crave the Light which doth shine in thy hair,
The very Light: which thy love doth beautifully extol.
We love thee as one. We love thee as one."
"We are they to whom the incarnation of thy very spirit,
Thy Word and Wisdom made flesh, was made known…
By the message of angels sent from Heaven's Light."
"We are they to whom the glory of thy incarnate spirit,
Thy Word and Wisdom made flesh, was thus shown…
From beyond the stars, beyond the shroud of Night."
"By Her boundless passion and the fire of Her love,
We may ascend as one, to the very throne of glory…
Through the fire: of our Lady. Blessed be. Amen."
"Even beyond the heights where angels soar above,
We may ascend as one, to the very throne of glory…
Through the fire: of our Lady. Blessed be. Amen."
Behold ye, the living child of the Divine Goddess…
Chaste is She of noble spirit and pure is She of mind.
In Her glory She is perfect and ever truly flawless…
Her compassion is unending, She is goodly and kind.
"Mother of the earthen soil, Mother of the sod,
Send us thy blessings and dispel every evil curse…
Mother of Creation, Mother of every high god,
Pray for all thy children throughout the universe."’
Thusly hath my children said of me, in song…
As I hath herein related, so thou may thus teach,
And keep those faithful, from paths of wrong:
Who keep the Divine Force within their reach!
And so they sang, and herein was their singing,
Made manifest in words and verses of simplicity.
Let the temple bells call out in silvery ringing,
As the music ends, its’ fair magical symphony!

Beautiful like the stars by the Goddess side. Well done.

Very happy you liked the poem, dear Lilly! It is one of my more powerfully spiritual works, for certain. To use a familiar phrase... the Divine Force is strong with this one! ;)

The poem conveys an imagery to me of a story telling session around a campfire. Or around the fireplace in winter. As usual your talent is so much apparent here...just like your other writes.:)Jessica.

This poem does have a great deal of warmth to it, of the sort that reminds one of a pleasant sort of gathering in which the verses are related to a younger generation sitting raptly whilst listening to it. Which conveys a level of beauty in the poem that I had not thought of when I penned it, but which is evident to me now and happily so! I am glad you liked it, Grace, very glad indeed. :D
