Shielded by the night

Soft summer glow
loons, their enchanting sound on the lake
night settles in
surrounding the soul with it's warmth
calm water touching the edges of my soul
the earth speaking in her soft rhythmic sound
the gentle voice of the Night Goddess...

Kissed by the night air
the Night Goddess caresses my soul with her soft kisses
the smell of her fragrant earth fills the night air
I lie on her shoreline
her soft gentle waves wash over me
I listen to her sounds and am healed
I find comfort in her voice
and wholeness in her spirit
in her whispered sounds and her shared secrets of the night...

Lulled almost to sleep by her soft shoreline sounds
the night is alive
I feel her from head to toe
feathery, delicate, breezes
pastel shades, velvet sounds, downy soft dreams
wind, breeze, quiet tranquil harmony...

Gently swaying branches silhouetted against the night sky play her symphony
with eager ears I listen to her nighttime story
the Night Goddess plays her rhapsody...
my willing soul yearns to listen

she never disappoints
always the faithful lover
always giving never holding back
I am shielded in the arms of her night.
