Poem- Raising Power



Darkness call the Witches Night
Tomorrow we have in our sight
See the happenings in the day
See the outcome of our plight

Chant the Goddess
In rhyme and song
Call the elements
You'll be strong

Air, and earth and water and fire
To our Spirit we do aspire
I, the Witch do call this hour
Goddess invoked give me your power.

Revolting Rhymes - Roald Dahl

A must for any Pagan/Witchy family library, Roald Dahl's twisted sense of humour strikes a chord in the heart of the twisted mind.

Wish I had him to read as a kid! He is absolutely...well.....dark!

Here is an excerpt from his version of Goldilocks and the Three Bears:

But Goldilocks like many freaks,
Does not appreciate antiques,
She doesn't care, she doesn't mind,
And now she plonks her fat behind
Upon this dainty precious chair.
And crunch! It busts beyond repair.


and

A judge would say without a blink,
"Ten years hard labour in the clink!"
But in the book, as you would see,
The little beast gets off scot-free,
While tiny children near and far,
Shout,"Goody-good! Hooray!Hurray!

This is an absolute must to get for your kids...loads of fun and we rolled with laughter!

And its available in the Trinidad National Library....the Children's Section of course. Or buy your own below!

Planetary Magick Poem- Pushing back Saturn

A few years ago on reading up about Planetary Magick, I penned this little poem. Although I remember the vibration of what I wanted to say....well the muse has left me...and I can no longer catch her Golden Thread......anyway...the poem:


Born I was with Saturn's Sight
And I too young to know this plight
Did wander round in restless night
His walls which kept me in.

I'd push until I could push no more
Rebelious and stifled
at Saturn's door
my mind will be trapped my emotions sore
My inner self just screaming

And Saturn taunted me
He teased me

Every where I turn to escape
Like some dreaded warden
he'd show me the bars which stopped
and blocked and limited my flight.

I'd befriended the aura of Venus fair
And so Saturn hated her there
He'd block and bar my lady fair
from showing me more minds

In my limited darkness I'd be in pain
bewildered and hopeless
and almost insane
the boundaries around me I pushed in vain.
And Venus would try to save me.

She'd send me gifts
and Saturn would block them.
Relationships and wealth were not to be mine.
He showed me their limits all of the time.

But Venus, being of quick mind
whispered a plan to me
We'd do a spell to push Saturn back
Enlist the help of Jupiter of expansive energies.



Jupiter! Thou expansive beast!
Neither light nor dark discerns.

And I got stuck here....ah well!
