Poetry of Love, Loss, and the Occult
I Am A Witch

I am a water-witch.
I cast my stones upon the waves,
Gleaming pale pinks,
Blues, reds sinking in the foam,
Drifting in intent.

I stand upon the shore
Catching the wind in my hair,
Blowing the sand away
From the intricate figure,
My sigil there, hand-carved and damp.

I am a fire-witch.
I sink the blade into my candles
In the dead of the night
I anoint them all with
The energies of my oil.

I sit before the flames,
Flickering as I waver,
My body rocking in rhythm
As the smoke drifts up,
With it my thoughts...and my power.

I am an earth-witch.
I tend my garden in the
Early morning hours,
Plucking tender heads, pulling
Dying leaves with permission.

I lay on the wet grass,
My skin bare against the ground.
My circle's made of stone,
Surrounding me, protecting me,
Kissing me with its beauty.

I am an air-witch.
I listen to the whispers
Of the wind as they rattle through
Me, as they touch the chimes
In the quiet of the evening.

I lean towards the mirror,
Seeking answers to my questions,
Seeing my intentions, my future
In the looking glass as I
Concentrate my thoughts.

I am a witch.
My soul is my center,
My chapel, my shelter.
My life is the elements;
I am in communion with our Mother.

I walk hand in hand with our Father. 
I am you, you are me...
Our souls intermingle
In balance...harmony...
Free-flowing life--a never-ending circle.
