Lammas

~

twixt solstice and equinox 

we break bread to give thanks 

and bless the harvest’s fruit,

another Lammas Sabbat turns 

the yearly wheel full-circle

as days cool, colours turn

light fades earlier to become 

an infrequently timid visitor,

it’s time to take stock, 

renew and revalue life’s 

important things, prepare to 

light the darkness, 

dance with the young 

talk with the old, plan

for the future, record our past
