THE DRUID:


Of the secret, the sacred & the unwritten law,

Ancient apothecary of nature´s wise old store,

Old Druid, friend of beast & all the forest folk,

Ever lending ear, to the ancient Henge that spoke.

 

To the elements bowing & in circles slow spun,

Obeying natural orders of the star, moon & sun,

Round you go, in your deep green & sacred Grove,

Wending secret paths, where unseen spirits rove.

 

Seer of old stone, seed & the wise runes of wood,

Swearing oaths, beneath your leaf & snowy hood,

Mistletoe hewn by scythe & alchemist’s red gold,

Beneath the opal moon, since times of very old.

 

Druids of ancient legends, myths & misty tales,

Of roots, plumes, air & fire, & places of the whales,

I ask, please take me with you, to that sacred place,

To where hood of leaf & snow, may hide away my face.
