Who remembers
All those embers
All those women paid a price
Magically their herbal prowess
Secretively rolled the dice
Healers using plants to balance
Science drawn in ample means
Able to relate such wisdom
Trial and error so it seems
What today we now encompass
True nutrition and beyond
Plants specific herbal essence
Abilities to correspond
With sensitives, those tried and tested
Plant Based remedies seemingly
Growing in the wilds apparent
With curative powers extraordinary
Believe the healing powers
Now tested
Crones we hear were Known to be
Loving angels of field and forest
Of occult memes extraordinary
Ignorance
Insensitivity
Abilities to realise
Seasonal prospects
In the offing
Root and leaf
Blossoms a prize
Scent and sense
And Fungal magic
Root and bark and bough of tree
Herbal highways
Healing by ways
Not for turning
Burning, We
Who remembers
All those embers
The frantic glow
The seasoned threat
Religious dogma
It was out there
It become
An eternal debt
