Beam me back to the forest, Merlin
Let me dance among the wolves.
Let me find inner power
and perfect truth...

Seeker of spirit am I
Among the earth, I begin my quest,
A journey of visions,
Sights of the mind
Connections with the soul...

Perhaps I shall meet my angel
My namesake,
the Lady in Blue



Revealed in a crystal
beneath the full moon
Or the Cherokee, the nameless one
Who led me to a place of light
Or the Eagle, who brought the shaman
Out of his tarot confinement
Gave him a staff, and a grimoire
Made him a Guide of the Seekers...

Perhaps I shall see the lamplight
And follow Hecate to her cave
I shall bathe in native waters
And learn to embrace the darkness.
I shall call upon the power of the Crone
To teach me the wisdom of the ages
I will listen with all of my being...

In time I shall pass through the portal
A new place, new lessons to learn
But for today, give me the evergreens
The waterfalls, magickal berries
and ancient oaks.
Beam me back to the forest, Merlin
Let me dance among the wolves...
