I am Pagan

At first everyone thought it was just a phase

that I'd soon grow out of it

I was just a teenager

fascinated by the promise of magic and spells

But as time wore on,

I didn't stop reading

every aspect of my life became affected

my choices became clearer

and now I had beliefs I held much dearer

I never even knew I had a faith

but when I discovered paganism

I knew I had been one all along

over the years

things have changed

sometimes I've neglected it, other times I've worked so hard on it,

but still the same

it always remains

the premise for me is so simple

"do what you will but harm none"

respecting the earth

and keeping in mind the power of three times three

all these years later I can't think of anything I'd rather be

my whole life this has been who I am

I am a pagan

and I am proud.

Words

Words can fly
words can zoom
just like an ultrasonic boom
words surround me
they pour down like a soft waterfall of ideas
so many beautiful words
it's hard to know where to start
and even harder to finish
but I love it with my heart and soul
writing is the only key I need
to unlock the door of creativity
and fill the voids of reality


The Psychedelic Radar

the psychedelic radar is in my head
transcending messages sent from outer space
transmitting thought patterns
to expand the outer limits of my mind
vivid colours and patterns
feels like a painting on my soul
so divine, I feel fine
it brings me love, it takes me through
a dimension I've never noticed before
and I never want it to end


Untitled

I am a door, unopened yet unlocked
I am the floor, often walked over
I am a wall, enclosing the outside world
I am a ceiling, stopping you from reaching the stars
I am a window, proving there's more to life than the room you're in
there's millions of rooms
and millions of houses
all across the world
but nothing will soothe your soul like the outdoors will

Blessed Be

I wish I could see you
I wish I could hear your voice
My love for you grow stronger every day
you are my ultimate happiness
unconditional love flows through you
yet I can't see your face
yet I can't hear your voice
but my love will never stop.

I can feel your presence all the time
In the trees, even in the daisies on street corners
I hear your magick constantly
In the birds song, in a child's laughter
You are everything and everything is you.

Thank you God and Goddess
For your everyday wonders and mystical miracles
my life would be nothing without you
I love you in every possible way
after all, my friends and family are all a part of you
thank you for being there
blessed be, God and Goddess

The Beauty

Sometimes the beauty in the world astounds me
Sometimes I just can't believe what I can see
What's that shining light in the corner?
Where's that fragrant smell coming from?
Sometimes I just admire the trees
Sometimes I watch the bees
what's that riding on it's back?
why is there a sparkle on the leaves?
sometimes I want to touch the flowers
sometimes in nature I want to spend my hours
I just can't believe what I can see
Faeries and nature spirits running free
what an amazing sight
Am I really seeing this in broad daylight?
The Earth is already so beautiful
and now it's beauty is intensified
sometimes the beauty in the world simply astounds me

Foxes

What must it feel like to be a fox?
To be chased around the block
wanted dead
labelled menace
criticised for animal instinct
can't help being a fox
why must they be afraid
of what laws may be overturned today?
Why do people look the other way
ignore the cruelty
behind the lies
overpopulation, vermin they say
It's all sorted out with a cull
but wouldn't it be dull
without the occasional glimpse of a fox to brighten your day?
Nobody culls the humans
who are we to play God?
Let's let nature be
and treasure each creature
we share this earth with
and learn to live in peace.

Stars

If the stars didn't exist
what would we wish upon?
would wishes ever come true?
would a wish even exist?

If you took away the moon
would there still be night?
would the tides still roll across the shore?

If the sun was to disappear
would there still be such a thing as light?

If the clouds were to float away forever
would anyone believe in heaven?

if there was no Earth
would we still be alive?

what if there were no dreams
would this world rip at the seams?

What if this is all a fantasy
and we are all but a thought in someone's head?
Does that make us dead?

The universe is filled with things
songs to sing
beauty and pain
sunshine and rain
what if it all went away?
