Did Someone Say Light?
Q: Did Someone Say Light?
A: Gentle Wings: A poem duet with Friedrich Schiller’s “Ode to Joy”
Joy! A spark of fire from heaven
A new day is born…
Whilst in deep review of what has been
From the past, we’re caste and torn
Lord Jupiter amplifies golden skies
While the moon passes over the sun
Hark the herald angels sing
And the day has barely begun!
Sparkles, glitter, miracles of light
Happiness? Increased Lithium?
A wee one is birthed…a future president?
Perhaps! A Daughter from Elysium
Gather the holy mistletoe,
Gold, myrrh and frankincense…
For it’s a Christmas kind of cheer
While for others it’s ‘kind of intense’
Ramakrishna, Happy Hanukah,
Merry Kwanza said the elves…
It doesn’t matter what you believe
Astrology asks to think for ourselves
Drunk with fire we dare to enter
A completely new decade,
2019 is wrapping up…
Be brave dear souls and unafraid
For those reading these stars and sparkling charts
Our eyes emblazoned with glory
Capricorn New Moon Solar Eclipse!
It’s the gift of rewriting our story
Now on this day, I supplicate to thee
Dearest Holy One, inside your shrine.
You’ve blessed us with this star-filled grace,
Cosmic reset, conjunct Jupiter, Uranus in trine…
Your magic power binds together
Indicating a truly bountiful gift
It isn’t every day we receive the likes of this,
Such an extraordinary and necessary lift
On every Christmas day of past,
Or so recent history goes…
Families have come together to feast,
In love & beratement...as friends or foes
These days are a challenge in many ways too
Whether we’re in or outside of our hearts
Certainly, it depends on our personal views
And What we by custom wrench apart
It doesn’t mean it’ll be a cakewalk,
All these gifts, even if gluten-free…
For 2020 has strong brute talons
Deeply gripping our insecurities
Yet the ripples of this blessed sky of now,
Sends precious waves through the next 6 months
So, while we endure oppressive delusional patriarchies
Remember it is the ego that affronts
Two heavy hitters are conjoining up next,
Saturn and Pluto, kicking up the fret and the dust
Well, dust is putting it rather lightly perhaps
We’ll swim through the mud and the dark if we must
Carols and chatter deck the halls!
There is a sweetness in the air...
Try not to scroll or watch too much news
For you may lose life in the zombie stare
With stockings near the fireplace,
Just not too close they say!
For climate chaos is an actuality,
Let’s keep the flames at bay
These darker times precede the light
When Compassion arises for others
We walk now divided, eventually united
For one day, All men* will emerge as brothers*
“Awaken to reality!”,
An angel calls you out!
“Beware of all the distraction zones
For consciousness is starting to sprout”
Her honeyed voice echos far and wide
“Hallelujah,” she captivatingly sings...
Amidst a celestial vault beyond time,
It’s here…she reveals, Where you rest your gentle wings.
All conscious humans* will live in harmony*
