The Autumn Goddess

 


Art designed by adorwardartist

I will dance
The dance of dying days
And sleeping life.
I will dance
In cold, dead leaves
A bending, whirling human flame.
I will dance
As the Horned Goddess rides
Across the skies.
I will dance
To the music of Her hounds
Running, baying in chorus.
I will dance
With the ghosts of those
Gone before.
I will dance
Between the sleep of life
And the dream of death.
I will dance
On Hallow’s dusky eye,
I will dance.

-  Karen Bergquist, An Autumn Chant (adapted for my goddess-centered practice.)

Blessings dark and deep!
