Beltane Eve

Beltane Eve

My children come together in the night

embraced by My full moon's light

Passions to fill

with consummate skill

Some a life to create

others to celebrate a mate

always to rejoice on this day

every eve of the first of May

My Horned One spreads desire

and those who hear burn with fire

They know the call to the Great Rite

those who see with more than sight

for Love is the law, Will is the way

and always there is time to play

Holy need not be solemn and ridged

Worship need not be stolid and fridged

for Ours is the Reverence of Nature

which is both youthful and mature

So come into Our forest shrine

eat your fill, drink the wine

bring your love out onto the physical plane

and Bless the Earth where you have lain
