The Blush and The Pale

Ashen... lands

Betwixt dawn
and sunrise

Blush veil 
of morning  
welcoming sunlight

~

Shadow... lands

Betwixt dusk
and moonrise

Pale veil 
of evening 
beckoning the night

Rediscovery


Witch-wind, Witch-water, Witch fire and Witch-earth
Is all wizardry dangerous and not of this world?
Magic, gifted beings among us... though in great dearth

Making potions and lotions in cauldrons on hearth
Through concoctions of plants and herbs healing occurs
Witch-wind, Witch-water, Witch fire and Witch-earth

Through alchemistic ventures the present was birthed  
Astrology teaches, how space and time has unfurled 
Magic, gifted beings among us... though in great dearth

When sickness strikes aren’t healers held in great worth? 
Yet in the past we persecuted tortured and burned 
Witch-wind, Witch-water, Witch fire and Witch-earth

In eccentric folk often genius’s unearthed 
We fear what we don’t understand; become disturbed  
Magic, gifted beings among us... though in great dearth

Have we progressed or regressed in what we have learned? 
Loss of ancient natural wisdom is a grave concern!  
Witch-wind, Witch-water, Witch fire and Witch-earth
Magic, gifted beings among us... though in great dearth
