Call of the Fairies

Postby Ashmodiel » 09 Jun 2011, 19:55

Come hither, o sweet child of man
Listen to our enchanting song
Come into the land of Pan
Succumb to us and dance along

Sing with us, o human child
Fall deep into our circle dance
Receive from us a kiss so mild
Cast to your world no single glance

Into the land of fairies glide
Leave all you used to know behind
To the Otherland now ride
Leave your world o so unkind

Come hither o sweet child of man
Listen to our enchanting song
Come into the land of Pan
Forget where you did once belong
May you unearth the treasures of your soul
And let them glow like an inner fire
May your fire and love be like a hearth
For friends and strangers to warm at

:hug: I like it a lot - but you alread know that. Always creates pictures in my mind.
I am walking on the path of soul - finding my light - making me whole

If we don't understand what the soul is telling us,
if we don't want to see the unseen,
if we carry on walking blindly through life -
without even seeing with the inner eye ...
then we will search for explanations,
then we will find ways of rationality,
then we will see the clarity of things -
and we will be frightened by the slightest signs of irrationality.

Thanks for those very kind and encouraging words!
They mean a lot to me.
May you unearth the treasures of your soul
And let them glow like an inner fire
May your fire and love be like a hearth
For friends and strangers to warm at
