Old Prophecies of Night by Golgothura
Merit for November 2009
Descended of Treeheart and all she brewed
amassed the magick of forests, anewed
A Tree to the North, to guard the Stag
a beacon of Moon and the bitter white hag
To the West rose a Tree, laden with sap
were Great Bear dwelled in nigh-constant nap
The Southern winds blew through a great Dark Tree
where Raven took roost and Night danced free
Descended of Treeheart and all she brew
amass the magick of forests, anew
Moondancing maidens scurry to ride
hallowed beams of bright lunar tide
Fur'ed folk sing to great, vast Lake,
partake of mead, devour honeycake
Blackened Covens exault the Queen
and dance the hour, now unseen
Descended of Treeheart and all she brought
condemned the forests to ruin and rot
Wilde and pure, the North shall endure,
brazen and proud, albeit insecure
West shall be East Afar and Away
ascended to heavens, escaping as prey
Roots shall be scarred, blood will be shed
Shadows shall come to nest royal bed
Descended of Treeheart and all they start
still fly the sky and dance the part
