Fly As the Phoenix

Rising from ground zero

from the ashes of the smoldering fire

The mighty Phoenix flies

that which once died

twice lives

She who has laid down her old ways

who through adversity has stood firm

is she who will find new ways to live

She who finds new ways to live

but forgets not the sacrifice she has made

is she who learns perseverance

She who walks on, each day by each day

is she who will gain her great mountain

But she who finds new ways to live

and walks on each day by each day

cherishing not only the new,

but celebrating the wisdom from the old

is she who will fly as the Phoenix

And she who does all these things

and reaches her hand out to her sister

who is still in darkness

She will rise with the new day

Ascend her mountain high

Fly as the Phoenix

And rest at peace in her soul

In the next life

~~~~~~~let it flow~~~~~~~

The Healing Stone

Once carried in a Faerie's pack

Far across the mountain track

Through searing heat and stormy seas

Protected for the circle's needs

Pass around the healing stone

Let each one touch it's light

That glows within, how--one can't tell

But knows it's power shining bright

From ancient days and legends born

When elves and faeries lived

To them great gifts were then bestowed

The greatest one, the healing stone

A rock so plain, and gray with age

No one could see it's useful need

Once touched by grace from age to age

It then became the healing stone

A healing stone lit from within

With wisdom borne from pain

To bring a touch of caring love

To all who came in need

Pass around the healing stone

Touch it and be healed

And if you don't believe it's power

Stay a while, in time you will

For love can light the darkest night

And laughter build a bridge

Deep compassion finds a friend

In everyone she meets

Pass around the healing stone

Let none be turned away

And if they need one for their own

Then give the stone away

For love creates from ashes burnt

So well that they can't be

But from their essence love can build

A diamond bright and clear

So pass around the healing stone

Give it to a friend

Let them handle it a while

Watch it's work begin

Pass around the healing stone

Give it gently, give it well

Bring a broken heart to heal

In time those bones will rise again

Pass around the healing stone

Lit by love and charity

Kindly, gently, tenderly

Love can heal the greatest need

let love flow~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
