Poems {free verse} about the changing seasons/turning of the wheel :)

I thought that I’d share.~

Ostara

The waters awake beneath the ice,

the ground awakes beneath the snow,

the winds are warmed

by the rousing of Mother Earth,

the trees awaken

and their leaves start to return.

The heart of spring is in the air, warming all

and awaking every hibernating animal with sunlight.

Spring is awakening.

Litha

The sun lights up the earth,

returning from its slumber,

reminding us of its power

yet also of its warm kiss.

Let light and fire be present in your heart

for it is the sun of summer.

Mabon

We live in a painting.

It is the time of year that leaves change colour,

and orange, yellow and red fly on the wind with the birds,

and apples are ripe for picking.

We are living in this beautiful painting that we call autumn.

Yule

Snowflakes dance down from the sky

to the glistening snow, blanketing the slumbering trees.

In the clouds, you can see the Deer Mother,

carrying the Sun across the sky in her antlers,

bringing light to the land.

All of winter sparkles

and my heart glows.
