Dance to bring back the light |
|
As the days move forward, may the sun return to fulfill its promise.
A Blessing for the New Year
BEANNACHT
On the day when The weight deadens On your shoulders And you stumble May the clay dance To balance you
And when your eyes Freeze behind The gray window And the ghost of loss Gets into you, May a flock of colors, Indigo, red, green And azure blue, Come to awaken in you A meadow of delight.
When the canvas frays In the curragh of thought And a stain of ocean Blackens beneath you, May there come across the waters A path of yellow moonlight To bring you safely home.
May the nourishment of the earth be yours, May the clarity of light be yours, May the protection of the ancestors be yours.
And may a slow Wind work these words Of love around you, An invisible cloak To mind your life.
from To Bless the Space Between Us: A Book of Blessings, Doubleday, 2008 by John O'Donohue
