The circle turns once more <br />and we, the children of the elements <br />watch in wonder. <br />The stately dance of the planets <br />As Mother Earth sings her tune <br />of life, of death, of re-birth. <br />Day and night, now equal, <br />in this time of fire. <br />The sun kisses the earth <br />Fills her with a heat, deep, deep down <br />and she responds to his gentle caresses <br />by showing her bountiful, <br />lustful, beautiful face. <br />And by giving life to all things. <br />As he rides out, he grows in power <br />in the everturning of the wheel. <br />And slowly, o so slowly <br />the cosmic dance continues. <br />The Wheel of Life is in the fertile phase. <br /> <br />3/92<br /><br />Penni Currie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/vernal-equinox-2/
