I have had a period of 'writers block', but alas I managed to break it for this poem.
I feel guilty, as I have been unable to look at others works for quite sometime, lets say there was a hint of envy because you guys were able to do what I wasn't.
Solstice
It has been a long wait for this day
Many a time I’ve yearned to come
Life’s path can take us far away
Yet one day the path rewards the Sun
We gather in a lane, just to be there
All sort of folks, travellers to Doctors
The spirit grows of time it is aware
That we must pass through the hours Nocturn
And then as one the engines roar
We wind and weave as one true whole
We build the Dragons Body we speak the Dragons tongue
Within each vehicle we are the Dragons Hoard.
As one we move and joined by more
The Dragon grows to fill its new lair
We walk free now the relinquished
As Summer rains and lightning fill the air
The sky now clears by power of will
Celebration times have now begun
As the Sun sets o’er yonder hill
And someone now they beat the drum
I fill my space with Ghostdance sounds
Meditate on what is to come at dawn
Time is slowed in my space around
By majick, aye, and flute so warm
I look to the North Venus so proud
Shining bright as only she knows how
And Jupiter now is in the South
Deities aligned for this one moment now.
And now its time for me to go
Up to the circle sacred stones of old
Through the dark, a path I know
With strength I walk it tall and bold
I know my place and it knows me
Thousands here too many to count
Yet still my place has been kept free
So I can write this rhyme, my account
I stand against a Stone on my right
My body, the stones, they blend as one
The drums play on all through the night
All sound and rythms become just one
And now comes dawn as it pales the night
Around us now the spirits reach higher
And Dragonsbreath surrounds this ancient site
A dawn so fine, and many inspired
The stones are alive its voice I heard
And Heartbeat too I could not ignore
I remembered seeing it when I was a bird
And now protected by the Dragons Hoard
Dragonsbreath it’s so light it does rise
To hide the sun, protect our eyes
The fight begun tween Earth and Sky
And joined at last by Water and Fire
Blessings to you all
Robb
