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"

~what a day!~


today has been one of those days

it seems there is some 'issue' with facebook which meant i could not post instant status updates on 
the wylde apothecary page without setting it as a scheduled update...i didn't want that, i wanted instant posting gratification!

i tried everything...

swampy tried everything...

it reached the point where i was going to either

a) throw my laptop out of the window in a fit of frustration

or

b)resign myself to not being able to manage my page

well finally i posted a cry for help which resulted in the much needed help and the downloading of chrome.

that of course then sent me into a spin as my bookmarks were not imported, but again help was at hand.

so here i am, its 5pm and i have done very little constructive today and its so frustrating.

ahh well never mind i can start tomorrow afresh!

its blisteringly cold here today and a large area of the country is having snow and lots of it.
us southerners are supposed to have rain but apart from a shower this morning it is staying dry.
personally i think it is so cold (cold enough for me to have the radiator on in my room) that anything that falls will be as snow.

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