damnfooltalk: two hands cupped around a warm glow, sparks drifting out like dandelion seeds to shine against the dark blue background like stars (Default)

Cailleach poem - rough draft

Unsettling; long settled
immovable rooted heights
and she who leaps upon them
in storm-tossed fearless flights
Ever-shifting, deeply cunning
creeping toad and bounding hare

Oaken strength and salmon's knowledge
veiled in silver hair
grinning like the sickle moon
glancing, grasping, free
gnarled fingers flashing
nine and four and three

Á Chailleach, weathered one,
your wisdom of uncounted years
your tempest strength
your shifting wit and
disdain in face of fear
I honor you and call to you that
you may be with me here
