Ostara Blessing - Spring Even-night 2013
Spring Even-night has come again
Herald of warmth and new green growth
Ostara has walked o’er the Land
Ever welcome for her blessing
Happy the Day! Happy the Folk!
Kin, Kith and Friends, sitting at board
Winter is o’er, Weal has topped Woe
Time to give thanks and look ahead
-Burden-
On the morrow, first farming day
Earth will be turned, stones will be picked
Fields to be made ready for seed
Looking ahead to Harvest Gain
-Burden-
Skies will be watched for signs of frost
To help assure that crops will grow
Too early will hurt young seedlings
Warmth for the earth will ward their strength
-Burden-
All of this will, prepare the way
For sowing seed in rich, dark earth
Plots are laid out, furrows stretch long
Hope for the days to come ahead
-Burden-
Under the sun, many toil
To wrest the wealth that all will need
When Even-night comes once again
Winter’s Herald, at Harvest time
-Burden-
Happy the Day! Happy the Folk!
Kin, Kith and Friends, sitting at board
Winter is o’er, Weal has topped Woe
Time to give thanks and look ahead
-Burden-
-Burden-
