Samhain arrives on a quater moon
I cast my circle and call to you
Dear Raven
Master Drake
Sister Dolphin
Brother Stag
Take your positions
Join me in praise
The wheel has turned another year
For celebration we gather here
Call the corners
Call the watchtowers
Lady Moon
Father Sun
Bless us with your light
Hear our prayers
Let our dreams take flight
We honor those who have gone before
Embrace the pain we've born
Raise a glass
Drink a toast
The veil thins
Magick begins
Do not long for the other side
Your time will come
As surely as the tide
Until then join me in this dance
Let the joys of the New Year commence
Fm 10-30-08
I let you go today
Opened the cage door
Watched you fly away
Opened my heart
And stepped outside
Opened my eyes
To other possibilities
I let you go today
Took back the keys
And set myself free
Took back my life
Saw the brilliance in me
Took back my heart
All but a tiny piece
I let you go today
Knowing you won't return
I have found my peace
Knowing I can't force
What life gifts to me
Knowing I know nothing
I have found my wings
Fm 10-27-08
You came home to hugs and tears
Memories shared through the years
Stories told by friends afar
Brought laughter to this room
Everyone's here for a hero's welcome
All you gave and the lives you touched
None of it was ever in vain
I only wish you could have walked in
Instead you entered draped in a flag

Some kind of magic we share
Energy from another time
We mixed it up in the air
Next life, we'd make it right
But mistress fate intervened
Seems we have to try again
I'll toss my fortune to the stars
If by chance I'll gain your heart
Meet me between here and there
Where science ends and faith begins
Fm 10-16-08
Who's leading this circus?
And why am I way up here?
I can't direct from this height,
Only watch the madness below.
Never a moment of stillness.
As one ring dims the other begins.
Too soon the spot shines on me.
I don't want to walk this tightrope.
But, the ladder is on the other side.
There is no net to catch my fall.
Only you on the next platform.
Do I risk crossing, falling into you,
Or plummeting to the circus tent floor.
Fm 10-16-08
Ponder the darkness
See what I can't show
Hold onto me
Never let go
I've waited lifetimes
I'll wait again
Just know this time
We're closer
Than we've ever been
Fm 10-16-08
A far off gaze not willing to be met
The text in front of her long forgotten
A pencil held to her trembling lips
Suddenly tears spill from her eyes
A deep breath in and a calculated sigh
She gathers her things, heads outside
What hurt attacks her in mid-afternoon
What fears won't relinquish their hold
How does thoughtfulness blink to tears
What is she hiding from all these years
A need to let go and forgive someone
Understanding but not to forget
Move forward from the lesson learned
Find her joy beyond this hurt
She smells of chocolate and cigarettes
As she breezes passed my desk
I reach and touch her hand
Please let someone in again
Not all men are created equal
Most can be retches at times
Not all are like the one who hurt you
Some want to gift you tears of joy
Be brave and give life a chance
Open your heart and join in the dance
Fm 10-8-08
There is a beauty which hides
Kept locked away deep inside
There are moments of escape
In a passing glimpse of the eye
Shimmering for a instant
Then tucked away again
Fear has bound it within this soul
Shining forth has taken its toll
Everyone wants a pretty little thing
But ignores a silent glimmering
Masses walk away and pass it by
But one will stop, look in the eyes
Be caught within those precious orbs
A light within outshines the stars
And when the one's hand reaches out
Beauty bursts forth to claim its love
Body to body
Skin to skin
How many times will I repeat this sin
A kiss of a stranger
One night of pleasure
Does nothing more than do me in
I am worth more
And I feel worthless
Trying to love with my body not heart
Mistakes I repeat
Keep out of reach
I don't know if I can be hurt again
Teach me how
I can respect myself
Force the friendship before anything else
