Welcome Seasons’
Sweet Inbreath,
St. John’s summer
leans toward
autumn’s Michael.
Earth about
Her warmest work
and passionate play,
the hidden inhalation
of Her Sacred Cycle.
This wondrous Life
we’re blessed to be,
part of the Dream,
as Earth and Heaven marry.
Matter and Mater,
She, our Queen,
round and round
the years, our Christ
does carry.
Lo, by Her Grace
we bring to birth,
the Sun of Love
inhabits Earth,
through hearts and hands,
Spirit and Flesh extending
to time and place,
healing and peace,
the great release;
winter’s exhale
and all our sorrows ending.
~Cheryl Anne
