Welcome July

A poem to celebrate the sunshine in the energy of the Buck Moon

Welcome July - A Poem by Sue Cartwright, Spiral Leaf


Welcome July

Mid-Summer sunshine and shimmering blue skies;

Fresh fruits ripening on bushes, trees and vines;

When days are long, spent being with Nature outside;

With picnics on the beach, dining alfresco as the Sun shines.

 

Welcome July

Sultry scents and warm, balmy nights;

Energy of the Buck Moon, named Thunder by the Western Abenaki Tribe;

A time of growth and renewal, Bucks shed their antlers, making way for new velvet-covered bone;

A metaphor for life, as we shed old patterns and beliefs to evolve and grow.


Welcome July

Village festivals and Morris Men;

Custom dancers, folk singers, fiddlers and local bands;

As Amaterasu, Solar Goddess, Sister of the Moon;

Brings love, compassion, warmth and light for every Sovereign Soul.
