New Moon Before All Hollows Eve
The leaves
do fall
The pumpkins
grow
The wind
rustles change
The Mountains
see snow
The Nights
turn colder
The days
desperate warmth
The Harvest
time cometh
The Moon
shines bright
Hail Earth
whose bounty we know
The fruits
of the fields we glean as we go
Hail Air
whose winds blow cool
The trees
speak the time of changes
Soon the
winters snow
Hail Fire
the sunsets glow
Red are
the nights when the cool winds blow
Hail Water
soon to fall as rain
To make
ready the land
For next
seasons gain
Welcome
Ceres.. Mistress of the Grain
that fills
the larder with this years gain
Blessings
Mother for thy loving hand
In the Golden
grain across the land
Welcome
Baccus Keeper of the Vine
The wine
is yet new, the harvest fest is thine
Merry maker
when the work is done
Soft is
thy hand on the laborers heart
A cornucopia
of bounty is on our table now
Reft from
the ground.. she gives gratefully now
The New
Year cometh
All hollows
soon to pass
Time to
reflect on the year now gone
To plan
for the year ahead
Blessings
be Great Mother
For thy
gifts this year we have enjoyed
Blessing
Be Great Father
For the
wisdom we have gained
Hearken
Delipinous...
Show us
the year to come
As the veil
becomes thin...
This hard
bounty we have won
Speak to
us Shopia ,
Lady wisdom
with golden voice
That we
husband well the gifts so gained
That we
swander not this trust
Peace be
upon the land
In this
time of plenty
All to share
and share alike
The gifts
of the Mothers bounty
By the Golden
glow of the Harvest Moon
We gather
this night to honor life's greatness
To savor
the moment that we live
And count
each tick of the clock as a blessing
Hail Great
Ones who share your bounty
Hail Blessed
ones who share your wisdom
Hail Tender
ones who share our woes
Hail My
Lords and Lady's
for the
harvest of my soul
Blessings
Be Mother Earth
To stand
with us this night
Hail and
Fair thee well
Blessings
Be Brother Air
Whose breath
is life
Hail and
Fair thee well
Blessings
be Brother Fire
Whose light
to guide the way
Hail and
Fair thee well
Blessings

all who know thee
Hail and
Fair thee well
