The first time I saw her ,She was dancing in the fire flickering with the pipes, naked feet stepping on the drum beats Glorious and free wild and unconfined The next time we met the frost coated the trees She was mist wrapped and the snow sparkled in her fiery hair and softly She crooned the Quarters gentle She called us to worship Then Spring Life bursting yellow and white ribbons twisted through glossy tresses Harp and drum flute and horn Myrrh and Rose and Jade She comes we follow and now Fall the time of sleep of sleeping death the fire is high the Sisters here and we wait Flute cries and lyre weeps yet the drum pulls calls stronger and more insistence She comes robed in orange and brown mustard and wine Slowly pacing the course of Sol then Luna's track returns Tall and Regal, Cool and Controlled
She walked to the fire and smiled, holding out Her hands She calls us to Dance
Singing ballads, new and old cooing, humming or merely swaying
The first time I saw Her she was Dancing in the Fire
