Imbolc

Imbolc

Maiden Goddess, grant renewed purity,
On this holy day, renew, this toiler, thine,
Bequeath to me, a Lady that doth shine,
Cherish, treasure, mine endlessly, with surety.

Candles all around, brilliant the fires light,
Brighter, warmer, grandeur, thou do glow,
Surrender a kiss, moist, radiant and slow,
Acquiesce, thy heart, nonpareil and bright.

Relinquish thy name, Consent to mine, I long,
Your heart beat rapid, against me, does console,
Thou enrich my life, make complete my soul,
Evermore and a day, to thee mine heart belong,
Come take the gift, through thee, I know peace
Accept, with gentle hands shelter, ne’er release.
