'I am Ritual'


I am ritual ... I am the earth, the seas, the sky
In ritual I be the fire, the air, the earth, the water
I summon the ether to be present ... so the forces of the wyrd entwine me
Making me a part of their works ...

I am ritual ... the word that ends the night ... the whisper in the day
That hidden door to all that is and was and shall be
Then ... I am the rain in the clouds ...
I am the eagle in the sky.

I am ritual ... a circle complete
Within life and without life
Eternal ... the fading flame to be rekindled
Forever am I

For my spirit shall never die
From man to dust to beyond
Into light to form to whispered voice
To presence ... to the stars ... to the hidden realms to man

I am ritual ... in all things I am known
I am magic and create all things
I bear the fruit ... I am the seed ...
I now sense the fire alive once more ....

I make my presence felt on the earth
Reducing the tinder to that which was before
I cleanse that which is outgrown
And my force will open the way for new ...
