The Moon

© Raven Spirit 2002

The Moon is the globe in the nighttime sky

Shining on the Earth from the heavens so high

Chasing the Sun

Who is chasing the Moon

Affecting the tides and our attitudes

The Maiden is seen Crescent in the sky

Being supported by the Gods watchful eye

Growing in wisdom in her time

She aids us and keeps pure of heart

As we work on beginning with the aid of The Art

The Mother comes when the moon is full

A time to rejoice and ask your boone

See your efforts begin to grow

The Mother reminds us you reap what you sow

You cannot escape the seed you plant

So be ever mindful of this universal fact

The Crone comes when the moon starts to fade

She has waxed and was full but will not go away

She is the Moon of the Harvest

Where we gather or crop

Was it what we intended or just a big flop

She pulls off the blinder and takes away the mask

She will show us the self we thought we hid at last

The New moon is here the time of rest

Through all the phases have you done your best?

The Maid, The Mother and the Holy Crone

At this time they stand-alone

Here is where their full power is shone
