Welcome to Crickjumper's Musings
As a young boy, I was led along the pagan path by my Grandmother Ina.
An herbalist and Celtic/Faery witch, she was a true inspiration.
And though she now resides in the Summerlands, all of these years later, I am still walking the path.
I am secure in who and what I am, and humbled by my heritage. And so now and again, I find myself picking up a quill and jotting down words that reflect my memories and experiences in this life. For better or worse these are my poems and songs. You are welcome to use them or not as you see fit.
Poem Section:
A Yule Gathering
Lunar Mother in the sky
Shine your light on us tonight
For this is the day we call Yule
When the new begins and the old rescinds
Candle light and the Yule log so bright
Our love is great upon this night
The coven gathers, as we do
Goddess worship as well as Lugh
Mother Goddess enlighten us
For in you we place our trust
Your love we worship, your love we adore
Mother Goddess, who could ask for more
Magick is in the air tonight
Candle light is ever so bright
Magick is in the air tonight
Candle light ever so bright
Silvery Queen, your smile so bright
A shooting star in the sky tonight
Silvery Queen, your smile so bright
Like a beacon, the time is right
As we renew our vows to each
It is for your love we reach
Nature children, Pagan bred
Without your love there would be dread
Yuletide warmth and candle light
We give our love to thee this night
Yuletide warmth and candle light
We give our love to thee this night
Mother Goddess and Father Lugh
We walk the path, we stay so true
Yueltide night is the start
Of love and hope in our heart
Blessed be to all of thee
Blessed be to all of thee
Shaman
Beaten path that I seek
Rising up the rugged peak
Snow capped mound
Void of sound
Red laced sky
At last I cry
Spirit of the East
This day is without feast
Journey of the soul
A trek to become whole
Spirit of the South
I stand with open mouth
Eagle feather in his hand
Shaman walks across the land
Spirit of the West
Put me to the test
As I sit to meditate
I know I cannot hesitate
Spirit of the North
My soul is ready to go forth
Astral travel through the spheres
I stand ready to face my fears
Spirit of the skies
Will you open up my eyes
Now the journey is complete
The inner circle is replete
Spirit of the earth
I am so filled with mirth
