My Requiem and I Walked a crooked path By and by By and by And as we walked along We thought we heard a laugh By and by By and by My Requiem and I Followed this silver song By and by By and by And like a river’s tide It pulled us along By and by By and by My Requiem and I Came across a tree By and by By and by There we left a kiss of gold From the Honey Bee By and by By and by My Requiem and I Solstice Blessings bade By and by By and by May the coming year ahead Be sweet and joyous made By and by By and by My Requiem and I Walked a crooked path By and by By and by And as we walked along We thought we heard a laugh By and by By and by
A spell crafting song and seal – to be sung three times while spiraling around a tree – each time slightly faster than the last. The seal to be sung three times before slapping the blood into the sigil and sealing the spell.
As I dance beneath this tree Around and around spiral bound
In my head a picture see Around and around spiral bound
In my hand a needle thick Around and around spiral bound
From my thumb some blood I prick Around and around spiral bound
Trace my sigil on this bark Around and around spiral bound
Place my will into this arc Around and around spiral bound
By three times three By land, sky and sea By black, white and red I seal this thread
On a faraway hill there once was a tree As lonely and barren as that tree could be Till one day came a Stranger all dressed in green And they were a weaver of the seen and unseen
They looked at the tree and its hidden desires That danced round that tree like green foxes of fire Sparkling like starlight in the blackest of skies Reminding that Stranger of the light in His eyes
So the Stranger stopped still and upturned their face Called to our Weaver, the holder of fates And Her answer came floating like feathers through air To merge with the Stranger, their skin bones and hair
They started to dance, and they moved around slowly Taking such care just like each step was holy Touching down gently like a stag in the wood Reminding that Stranger of their Man in Green Hood
From the base of that hill the Stranger did dance Spiraling upwards between the three lands And as sunrise came slowly to the edge of the sky The Stranger and tree came to meet eye to eye
Its branches rose up, each one back lit in crimson Its trunk was etched deeply with lines holding wisdom Roots hugging Earth gently as a bear holds her cub Reminding That Stranger of Her thorny heart’s rub
As birds heralded daylight the Stranger did sing Voice echoing deeply like a silver bell’s ring Its ethereal grace embraced the tree Like twin snakes dancing in divine revelry
The tree started to glow as if it was on fire The serpentine light flowing deeper and higher Till it’s heart burst with an orange red flare Reminding that stranger of mystery’s care
In the suns full bright gaze, the Tree stood so tall Seeming together the One and the All Then suddenly leaves ushered in life Followed by fruit red and ripe for the knife
The stranger they laughed and it echoed with lightning Crowning the Tree with its crooked gold shining Drawing around it the old Lore and Good Reminding that Stranger of the deep dark WildWood
On a faraway hill there once was a tree As large and majestic as that tree could be Till one day came a Stranger all dressed in green And they were a weaver of the seen and unseen
