Snow Petals in May
by Bobbi Sihna-Morey

Alaskan Wild Flower Fairy

In the

petals

of the

Alaskan

wild

flower

a fairy

grows

her skin

soft as

snow

in the

light

of the

Morning

Star

half

hidden

by the

sun’s

autumnal

glow

where

she flies

in the

cirrus

sky

haloed

in the

orange

blue

indigo.

Golden Orchid Fairy

In a

bed of

crystal

leaves

fairy

awakens

from her

dream of

golden

orchids

in the

snow,

irises

lit by

the tears

in the sky

and petals

of light

born from

the milk

of a rose

till she

flies

toward the

eclipsing

sun

haloed

in the

amaranth

drops of

a rainbow.

Morning Circle

In the

smoke

of her

incense

wiccan

purifies

her skin

and the

scar on

her chin

lifting

a glass

of black

wine to be

blessed

by the

goddess

in heaven.

She eats

a melon

cake its

sweet soft

center

empowering

her within

as she

whispers

a prayer

closing

the circle

lit by the

corona of

light the

morning sun

brings in.

Scrying

In the

light

of her

fire

wiccan

purifies

her mirror

so she can

scry in the

snow. She

will be

haloed in

dusky silk

flowers

inside a

temple of

gold where

she will be

wed under

the first

evening star

blessed by

the Earth

Mother in

circle of

fire. A

hymn is

sung to the

rhythm of

a lyre and

its sweet

music lulls

her to sleep

dreaming

of an orchid

sky and

sapphire.
