Ostara 2005
Like
the green leaves on the bough
Our
spirits are ready to arise
Rise
up your hearts
Rise
up your soul
Gladly
we greet the springs sunrise
Hail
Maiden of Springtime
Gladly
do we meet thee
Sweet
Mother Ostara of life everlasting
We are
the new flowers
On thy
awaking tree
Warm
the winds blow
To free
the ice frost
Be welcome
Airs breath
We have
paid the cost
Fire
in the sky of spring time storms
Electrify
us with your power
Be welcome
Fires lighting strikes
We welcome
your strength in this hour
Wistful
the rains, to life does it call
To welcome
new life to us all
Be welcome
Water, master of life
We will
wash ourselves clean in your fall
Hail
Mother Earth
From
your cold sleep you awaken
Be welcome
Earths bounty
We await
the harvest, we will be making
Even
is the time of day and night
Savor
the moment when all things are right
Balanced
are we between dark and light
Hail
Mother springtime
We hold
now the rite
Green,
the color of new leaves
Fills
our eyes, and our needs
New
herbs shyly peek
From
the ground so cool
To heal,
to soothe, to awaken the soul
All creatures
great and small
Abound
with new life
Out
goes the call
Rise
up, open your arms to the way
New
life abounds on this solstice day
Remember
the day
Remember
it well
This
is the time
When
on our lives we dwell
New
born are we with springtime's face
Like
the bountiful Mothers Hare
We can
live life with simple grace
View
the cosmic egg that birthed us all
Inside
ourselves we seek the knowledge
To be
reborn, as one with it all
Shed
the old, and live life anew
As the
season turns, so can we too
Savor
the challenge
To live
life anew
Learn
from life's bounty
What
we need do
We now
take up the life force
And
learn the lesson of the Hare
That
each moment is another chance
To become
fully aware
Open
your eyes
Open
your soul
Open
your heart
To the
music of living
For
all these things
We are
given for Free
We give
to Our Mother thanksgiving
Hail
and blessed be
Warm
the winds blew
Who
freed the ice of frost
Hail
and fairwell Airs breath
We gladly
paid the cost
Fire
in the sky of spring time storms
Electrified
us with your power
Hail
and fairwell Fires lighting strikes
We welcomed
your strength in this hour
Wistful
the rains, to life does it call
Welcomed
new life to us all
Hail
and fairwell Water, master of life
We will
washed ourselves clean in your fall
Hail
Mother Earth
From
your cold sleep you have awakened
Hail
and fairwell Earths bounty
We give
thanks for the harvest
We will
be making
Blessings
Be
