The Bone Mother
Hail Arch-Crone, Goddess
of Wisdom and Death,
She who is Wild and untamable,
Who brings wisdom
and the death of ego,
and through that death,rebirth.
Hail Whirlwind woman
Who brings us dreams
of tomorrow
But such wisdom is only
for the brave
Who dare to walk through
the bone yard of yesterday
The Killer of Ignorance
Great Bringer of the
Dark Shadows of the self
Show us the way to come
again to the light
No tracks do you leave
of your presence
For only those who have
earned the right
Can pass within to a
new beginning
Shaman Woman, who guides
the Horsemen of life
Bright Dawn, Red Sunlight
and the Darkness of Night
Hail be to she, who guards
the fountain of Life and Death
From which all men must
one day drink
To be filled, one must
first be empty
One must pay the price
of passage
To the Deep Drummer in
the Earth
To hear her songs of
Magick
Hail Bone Mother
She of watchful eyes
Who sees deep into the
mirror of the soul
May you find my sprit
worthy of your gift
Of new life
