Feeling Quiet
Hearing Silence

Grandmother Moon


I sat one night, in the dirt and sand, looking at the moon

into her kind and gentle light, I looked, it truly made me swoon

my body, and my spirit were weary and so drained

fighting always for the light, can cause a soul such pain

she looked at me with endless love

and wrapped me in her cloak

the darkness, she said, is not to fear, but a place to rest and float

rest here, my warrior, your weary soul, and fear for not no more

you need not fight, nor her not now, just rest inside my night

she wrapped me up, and let me sleep, like I have not slept so long

and when I woke she was still there, and told me now I was strong

she spoke to me, of secret things, of love I know inside

she told me to follow my heart, there is no need to hide

she said when I grew weary and tired, to lay inside her arms

to wrap myself in her warm dark night, to lay down all my arms

for a warrior of the light, needs rest too

and finds it in the dark

one is not better than the rest, there is balance in all, to find, to learn, to mark

she kissed me good day, and asked of me, one very special thing

when my husband rises with his shinny face, of my love for him will you sing?

then she went to where she rests, and winked one time to me

of love in this world that I have felt, that of the grandmother, makes my spirit sing.

    ((((((Mystic)))))))))  I need extra prayers. My mom called and dad is in the hospital again. They put him in the hospital Monday. He has a fever that they can't get down and the fever doesn't match the normal patterns that fevers follow. They think he has pneumonia, but they can't tell. His lungs show up black on x-rays from the damage of years of smoking. I asked mom if he had any bites and she said yes and they had just told the doctor about them today. I feel that is what is causing the problem... tick bites. The doctor has been rotating two of the strongest antibiotics available and today he added the one used for Spotted Tick Fever. And yes, I'm in tears here, but I'm ok.  Dad is afraid this time and thinks he isn't going to make it. I just got off the phone with him and I could hear his worry and he was having a terrible time breathing. He also told me he was sorry he had smoked so much and exposed all of us kids to that too. I asked mom if I needed to come and she said not yet. I agreed. I need you. Love you, Wild
