Prayer

-We Honor Her Faces-
:by Jigda Taffelberry

We honor the hearth-mother, warming, protecting
A fire stoked high on a cool autumn night.
We hold to her skirts, we seek out her favor,
We honor her faces, the dark and the light.

First Harawep, web-weaver, tale-spinner, line-walker
Building her home, tending her net.
Plucking her threads like a silken harp,
A sensuous tune, a trap to be set.

She wraps her prey in a gossamer womb.
With the gentlest kiss, our pain is gone.
We walk her web to the Starry Road,
We wander the path, but never alone.

Then Albreda, soul-singer, pain-taker, peace-bringer,
Flying ahead on the wings of a dove
Guides us, patiently, steadily, joyfully,
Leading us home, with hope and with love.

As Harawep binds us, rest safe in the knowledge
Albreda arrives to set things right.
Tamsine, the hearth-mother, knows our patience.
We honor her faces, the dark and the light.
