Heralding Samhain and October revelry…
Ride the Sky!
Ride the sky! The solstice nigh!
The soulful moon is singing her decree!
Raise the lantern, don’t be shy!
Awake the night with bountiful esprit!
Bring the heady broth to boil,
Intoxicate thyself by every sip,
Smoke arising in a coil,
And ecstasy upon thy ruddy lip.
Praise the elements of air!
With Hekate’s epiphanies to bring!
Such prodigious life to share,
And such a bright ebullience to sing.
Praise the lambency of night!
The moon and all her entourage of stars,
Revelry and dark delight,
Below the incandescent speck of Mars.
Praise the mead in luscious taste!
Saccharin and overwhelming strong,
With a hint of honey laced,
Rapture for the charismatic throng!
Praise the guardians of time!
The corners are awake in awesome poise!
With the spirits raised sublime,
Samhain with her relishable joys!
Mark the heavens o’er the sea—
Myriads of witches on the wing!
Singing strident, racing free,
On the broom triumphantly to cling!
Samhain is the season’s height!
The rousing of the brazen and bizarre,
Ecstacies of second sight,
Doorways to the underworld ajar…
