Silent Shroud
The bells are singing,
Chant of Pride.
"Follow path to wood's cleared light!"
so softly spoken-
I spill sighs on sight.
Heavy moon-birth
shadowed in night
Hips sway accord, harmony's plight.
Wide stump holds
lone candle, there
Pale Sanctity in prayer, eye-height.
Sends wisdom'd word-
whispered to wind, this night.
One burning glow,
wick dance is slow.
I yield knees, ceremonious echo...
Peace to its shine,
blind, but for its hold.
flame's silent shroud is all that I know.

Aww doll, I shall embrace your "witchy" and
stroke it as a shiny new pet. ty ;)
(might even let it eat w/m'muse!)
This is an old practice in my itchy-witch fam.
On full moons, bells aplenty, wht candles are put on the stumps of trees to aid their passing souls.
(eerie hallow's eve tune here) lol.
yawns hun..I babble in sleepy-fits
warm morning wishes!
