When I Awaken
When I awaken to the stone cold morning
I start to feel sick for the betrayal
By someone I had held dear to my heart.
For what he has done
makes me feel like nothing.
Like I just wanted the creator of this world
to take me away, from the suffering and pain.
I live life now in fear of him
and what he has done.
I still play football, soft ball,
and more sports with friends
ever fearful he will do it again.
I fear for being left alone with him
for I have seen
what the evil inside
has done to him
I feel and taste dirt on
and inside of this shell
that holds my soul and spirit
for when I awaken I remember it again
~ Ashley Scullen, daughter of Mary

Avalon
Avalon place of my birth,

Holy ground, sacred earth
Come one, come all, and gather round
for we will call the Ancient ones down.
Avalon is where I long to be,
Avalon still calls to me.
Come forth the mighty ones I call,
The Ancient Goddesses one and all.
Come forth the Ancients for me to see,
Avalon still stands for me.
The Goddesses five I call to thee,
bring forth your power and majesty.
The strength and power you all hold
come forth, your truth be told.
As I bring forth your powers that be,
I bring Avalon closer to me.
Arianrhod, Blodeuwedd, Branwen,
Cerridwen, and Rhiannon
Now I've named the powerful five,
help me keep Avalon alive.
As we walk the circle thrice around,
we are now standing on ancient ground
Avalon place of my birth
Holy ground, sacred earth
For Avalon is home to me,
and Avalon lives on within me.

Blodeuwedd
I am Blodeuwedd, created out of the flowers nine.
To serve a man they say is thine.
With no choice, he reigns as king
Binding his life with mine.
As the maiden innocent and pure
serving his needs through out the year,
Passing my time with his service and needs,
There must be more than tedious deeds.
I see a spark of light, on the distant Glenn
Happiness around the bend, will it be here soon?
For the woman inside has started to bloom,
Slowly pushing out the mans gloom.
Making choices, As I flower into my full womanhood
How to make myself understood.
Man's dark cloud hovers over my head,
Plots and plans go unsaid.
Which way to turn, who to choose,
What do I have to loose?
All I want is to be set free,
hopefully my choices release me.
Transforming into the Owl wise
Keeping my mysteries from prying eyes
Guiding me thru the starry night,
Enveloping me in your wings so tight
Revealing your secrets, within silent flight.
Empowering me with your ancient sight.
I am Blodeuwedd made of the flowers nine
I have developed in my own time
look inside and you will see
I am all I ever wanted to be
The Owl's wings, have set me free.

Feather Dance
Birds of different feathers, come together
Calling us to circle round
standing on sacred ground.
On this day, as seen before
looking thru, the ancient door.
Calling together, our voices one
Our tribe of many feathers has begun.
All of us, flying high, above the sky
letting wisdom guide us, as we soar
high above the ancient door
looking down upon our sacred ground
watching as we circle round
bringing knowledge from high above down to earth,
to guide us with their love.

Owl Three
Follow the Owl to the tree,
where the secret waits for me.
For the Owl holds the wisdom.

I follow the owls to the ancient door

To discover all our knowledge of old

Rhiannon
Rhiannon with the golden hair
riding the white mare
as you spring forth, from the fairy mound
spreading prosperity all around.
Falsely accused, suffered and abused
carrying burdens, forced upon you
biding your time, for truth to prevail
freeing you from your punishment and grief.
Mother of wisdom, patient and kind
perseverance won out
your son has returned
released from your burdens
sovereignty returns

Rite Blessing
Rosemary, Thyme, add some Pine
Grind up fine
Burning in the censer near
Calling for the ancients to hear.
Bless this rite, that I recite
Scented with my mixture right
Send to me, Send to me this night.
The help I ask, Bless this rite.

Soul's Memories
Souls old, souls deep all my memories my soul dose keep

Flight Circle
The hawk cries out to me
In the sky wild and free
Soaring higher above the plain
Calling me to do the same
Gathering wings I try to fly
Encouraged from hawk, in the sky
Up I go to soar high
With guiding wing, from hawk above.

Looking down, So I may see
The wisdom that is revealed to me
Gaining knowledge, as we soar around
Hawk guides me to sacred ground.
Gently now, as we circle round
Preparing; to land in sacred ground
Hawk is showing me the way
Teaching me, how to play.
Gathering knowledge and wisdom too
Hawk has shown me what to do
Circle round once more
Will set it firmly, and open the door
Hawks strength will carry me through
As I prepare what I must do.

The Note
I just had to send a note
To tell you How much I love you,and care about you.
I saw you yesterday...
as you were walking with your friends.
I waited all day...
Hoping you would want to talk with me also.
As evening drew near...
I gave you a sunset to close your day
and a cool breeze to rest you...
You never came.
Yes, it did hurt me... but I still love you.
I saw you fall asleep last night.
I longed to touch your brow,
so I spilled moonlight upon your pillow and face.
Again I waited....
Wanting to rush down, so we could talk...
I have so manu things to share with you.
You awakened late, and rushed off to your work
My tears were in the rain...
Just call me... Ask me...
Talk with me.
Please don't forget me
I won't bother you any further
You are free to choose me
It's your decision...
I have chosen you...
Because of this...
I will wait...
I love you...

Going Home

With the darksome starry night
my path is lit by Farie light.

Down thru the trees, I go
wondering what it is to show.

Following the owls flight,
on this darksome starry night.

Wondering what I shall see,
guides by the owl three.

To the clearing, around the bend,
what waits there for me?

Opens the glade, and all wonders to me
I stop in awe, for it cannot be.

It is a place where magic rules,
and love and laughter fills my soul

I am home.

Whisper the Winds

Across the meadow thru the trees,
down the hillside flows the breeze
whispering words of ancient tales.
To teach the magic, for those who'll hear.
The ancients call you near.

Whispering upon the wind,
you hear them say;
Come to me, come to me this day.
Sit quietly and listen,
For then you will hear
The wisdom of the ancients near.

The wind carries the voices true,
They will teach you.
Telling tales of old, and battles of the ancients bold.

The magic is within, you know
you need to sit and listen so.
The ancient wind will tell you how,
you can draw the magic out.

As you listen, the ancient wind whispers
the magic words to thee.
To help you set the ancient onešs free.
Call them now, call them round
Bring them down to the ground.

Ancient one's we worship thee,
We honor and respect thee,
Hear our call that they all may see.
That we will honor all of thee.

Mighty Oak

Plant the acorn, so it may grow
the mighty oak that we all know.
Each night we come around
and cast our circle on the ground.

Beneath the boughs of wisdom, we seek
the spells we cast, secrets deep.
Honor us old ones, we ask
in our rites as we do cast.
In your knowledge, we hold dear.
all the rites of yesteryear.

We bring forth our knowledge now
underneath the mighty oak.
We ask that you protect us all
with the knowledge we invoke.

We hold the ways of the ancient ones dear.
We ask that all who come here
bring the love and laughter, as you glean here.
Hold the ways of the ancient one's
in your heart and keep them near.
For they are you, as you are them.

Circle Call

As I walk the circle round
I cast my circle on the ground.
In this place of sacred space
I call the ancients down.

Come to me this night.
Help me in my rite.
As we do cast,
this spell of ancient's past.
I call and summon round
the ancients to this ground.

Come to me,
and you will see
the power of the three
I do summon thee.

Moon Goddess

Lady of the moon
I shall see you soon
As I call to you this night
in my sacred moonlit rite
I ask your blessings brought to me
on your moonbeams three
come to me
bathe me in your gentle light
guide me in my sacred rite
I seek your wisdom,
for all to know
the blessings that you bestow
come to me for all to see.

Spell wright

On this paper I do write
guidance for my sacred rite
a stick, stone, and candle white
incense burning on my right
All this lit by candlelight,
words of knowledge, for me to say
spells to cast, now this day
the wisdom, I do seek, the ancient way
Secrets ancient, secrets deep
I bring forth for me to keep,
with the words, that I may speak
to help me keep my spell this day.

Old Box

Ancient treasure box of the mighty oak
All the mysteries, you provoke
All secrets are within,
call to me, as the time has come,
Never telling what it's all about.
Twilight will find the lock, to open the door
Wisdom that is old, is locked within
Show me all that I adore.
Unlock the mystery to find the key
Open now, so we shall see
All the wisdom that there is for me.

I am a wind, on the deep lake

I am a wind, on the deep lake
I come from far away
Whispering words of ancient lore
hear my wisdom from distant shore
For I am a wind from ancient time
whispering quietly, soft and near
stop and listen, so you may hear
the wisdom I bring to your ear

I am a wind, on the deep lake
empowering you, with every breath you take
gently stiring emotions deep
bringing forth the ancient wisdom
helping you remember, so you may grow

I am a wind, on the deep lake
Caressing your mind, so it may bring through
the ancient memories, you once knew
gently blowing across the lake
parting the mists, to show the way

For I am a wind, on the deep lake of your mind
bringing forth the ancient time
the memories, you once knew
and showing Avalon to you.

Remember, Reclaim, Renew

Remember the days of old, the way we worshipped, the times we tolled. Remember Avalon for whence we came, For now we are one in the same. Everyone doing their part, to bring forth a new Avalon from our hearts.

Reclaim our power, for us all to see; the island of Avalon will be, revealed to thee. Reclaiming the power, you once knew, combining the old with the new. Bringing forth our wisdom true, parting the mists, so we may step thru. Holding steadfast to our claim, for Avalon will remain the same.

Remember, reclaim, renew for Avalon these things we do. Renewing our relationships to those of the past, connecting to make them last, chants of honor, songs we sing, spells we cast, bring forth ancients from our past.

Remember, reclaim, renew for Avalon my heart is true, standing there on distant shore waiting for me evermore; home is where I long to be Avalon still stands for me.
