Awaken
Awaken, oh thunderous morn
this day of Spring’s renewing!
The frost has lifted, Earth’s reborn
the Winter’s dark receding.
Storms clash and winds sigh
the Lion roars its shout
This battle rages ‘tween Earth and Sky
Spring charging in, Winter out.
Ending gently but beginning fast
we call for sleep to end,
O Light vanquish the shadow’s cast
To Eos our prayers we send.
The Vernal Equinox has come
The days outlive the night,
Persephone’s reign below is done
Demeter now show’s Her delight.
Oh Goddess great, giver of grain
all Winter we have been calling
Release us from the Winter’s Bane
May Your blessings be a’falling!
Rebirth has come, Spring is nigh
Gaia has now awakened.
We celebrate with spirits high
Dark days finally ended.
The children play in circle round
laughter, the smiles of youth,
We see renewal and life is found
Earth’s cycle reveals the truth!!
