Today
\nwe entered a world away
\nFrom influences negative
\nstepped back in time
\nAll warriors
\nPathfinders that all shared
\nThe climb<\/p>\n
A slow procession
\nInto a place
\nHewn from the rock
\nThe edge the face
\nInto the chasm
\nWhere energy
\nAnd myriad lights
\nDid tranquilly<\/p>\n
Transform our thinking
\nCalm our mind
\nDocked in a world
\nWith the combined
\nUnhurried restful halcyon hours
\nSedated almost
\nIn cool showers
\nOf weeping moisture everwhere
\nTransfixed together
\nWe did share<\/p>\n
A temple where
\nA circle formed
\nof like minded souls
\nWith spirits warmed
\nTo merry meet
\nThe blessed be
\nHow was it formed
\nInevitably<\/p>\n
Our druid family
\nAnd would be friends
\nHonouring Brigit
\nEach souls urge sends
\nA ritual flame
\nAnd totally
\nIn tune with all that
\nCame to be<\/p>\n
Down there in the peacefulness
\nAn old iron ore mine
\nMore or less
\nHewn and deep
\nApparently
\nfrom the evidence
\nWe truthfully <\/p>\n
Felt we reaped
\nA celebration
\nfor Imbolc
\nSerenely shared
\nA true sedation
\nResting on our laurels really
\nSharing breath
\nAnd so sincerely<\/p>\n
A decantation of spirits waking
\nA coming together
\nOf really making
\nA difference
\nA truly continual flow
\nA circular chain
\nThat we knew did grow<\/p>\n
That freedom to feel
\nTo express to bear
\nWitness To outpourings
\nReally to share
\nThe ritual of engaging
\nThe voice and the soul
\nOf Paying ones dues
\nAnd performing ones role<\/p>\n
Darkness and shadows
\nCreate the emotion
\nthe sprinkle of light forms
\nA fragile devotion
\nSubtle each weeny light form
\nDid combine
\nWith Ornamentation
\nThat touched the divine<\/p>\n
Transcending the spirit
\nThe zenith beyond
\nA joining together
\nAs if some great wand
\nWas wished upon everyone
\nAn intimacy
\nClose and secure
\nWhere it felt good to be<\/p>\n
Clearwell its caves
\nIn the Forest of Dean<\/p>\n
