Sacred Bond

What a beauty she is

Dressed in her adorned cloak

With crystals, incense

Candles and herbs

Placed properly about

As she reaches to the moon

And draws it down,

Holding it gently

Yet firmly in her hand

So it does not fall

As she begins to chant,

She calls upon

God and Goddess

The stars as well

To give their most gracious blessing

Than anybody could ever ask 

Before he were to lift her veil,

While moon in hand

And the stars balanced above

She looks to them

For their nuptials filled with love,

Hand in hand before her

They recite a line of poetry

From the depths of their hearts

Etched within for eternity,

They have taken the Sacred Bond

For all eyes to see

For all ears to hear

Their bond now sealed

They will be forever

~~Together~~

Now they are able to envelop their nights

And embrace their dawns.

A beautiful vision create by the poem. I like the description of the bonding. Old culture used the gifts of nature to create a sealing of two people into one life. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poem.

This piece is like a blessed event, I want to sing Hallelujah after reading this. 'reaching to the moon' is lovely, you put me over the moon with this one. Another favorite.
