A good friend has died, and in memoriam, I have written this piece which sums up the joyful times we had together.
Joy: A Reflection
Openings: the time has come, the time is near
Samhain, Yule, Imbolc, Ostera, and Beltane
Circle round, rituals of Wheel of the Year
Litha, Lammas, Mabon, rise to another plane
Ritual: robes, candles, and circling round
Altar festooned with elements and sign
And mead and food, the seasons crowned
Meditations draw us in, story outline
Closings: put out the candles, time to go
And priestess declares the ritual ended
Circle widdershins, and robed we flow
Then feast, and friends, it is so splendid
Joy brought us together, and made it so
And memories remain, in departing go
