The Flame Haired Solstice Dreamer

Cold winter brings the Everfrost and jewels every tree
In a forest new as birth and old as old can be
A flame~haired dreamer wanders there and shelters from the wind
And spins her dreams around the trees to break the ties that bind
She takes her thread and spins anew and how the Greenwood smiles
As she spins a spell for freedom and for her spirit Wylde

The dreamer finds an ancient oak and shelters in his lee
In a forest new as birth and old as old can be
Tis summer now and birdsong weaves its magick through her spells
And humming bees drum drowsily in the foxglove's bells
The dreamer sits beneath the oak with yarn upon her knee
And spins and knits and weaves her dreams and sets her spirit free

"When birds fall from the sky and the animals are dying, a new tribe of people...shall come unto the earth from many colors, classes, creeds, who by their actions and deeds shall make the earth green again. they will be known as the warriors of the Rainbow"

~good grief~

i dispair of this country and the attitudes of people~some people~here.
it goes like this~immigrants come into the country, legally, buy a home, have jobs~in this case low wage jobs~ and pay taxes and yet locals complain that they are using tax payers money in order to access public services.
I am sorry but if they pay their taxes do they not have a right to access public services like every other person in this country?
whats laughable is that in a documnetry a regular young man, born in this country and unemployed was asked if he would take a low paid job~his reply~no he would want more money.
i just hate this stupid attitude~what makes these people so special they think they should be given huge wages on a plate and yet they moan about people from Poland or wherever coming here legally and 'taking their jobs'
its a farce.
and yet all these 'Brits' think its just fine for them to go swanning over to France and spain and do exactly the same thing!
the mind boggles.
i get so mad and i am ashamed to be classed as British right now, to me there is nothing to be proud of in this dreadful country at this time.

~but at the same time i am proud of my ancestral heritage but at the same time i really do feel so solitary~solitary in that i feel apart from others who feel the same, who feel the same pull of their ancestors~the ancient tribes of this land~

we seem to be a country out of control~higher and higher taxes, a government to just takes and takes, a health service so far removed from a public health service it started out as to be laughable, young people being brought up with no respect for anything, anyone and finding kudos in it with parents who just do not give a crap, police who no longer have the powers to kurb the bad behavious~the same for teachers~the list is endless and i am getting even madder so i best stop...

hier in Deutschland gibt es das gleiche Problem,nur dass es sich zwischen Ost und Westdeutschland abspielt.Polen und andere Ausländer sind nach Holland oder England ausgewandert.Ostdeutsche arbeiten für noch weniger Geld.
Ich habe auch nichts gegen Ausländer ,es bereichert unsere Kultur.
Finde deinen Artikel sehr gut.
Eine Wunderbare Musik.Bin begeistert!!

Bin in allem vollkommen deiner Meinung.
Es Betrifft nicht nur England ,in Deutschland ist es gleich .Keine Werte mehr.

All things share the same breath~the beast, the tree, the man, the air shares its spirit with all the life it supports.
