Spring unfurls her blossomed cape and dances the grass green again. Vibrant and bright eyed appears a shape, and then… “Leap! Over stalk and stone, beneath life-giving Sun or Moon, white as bone. Listen! You will hear the answer. I, with my hat of many tricks, will teach you to elude even the crafty Fox! Run!” Through the briar patch unscathed, like a Faerie Dancer! “Everything has it’s proper span. Fear neither Death on her silent wings, nor Time in his hallowed halls, nor the follies of fellow Man! I sing of Beginnings, Fertility, Renewal, Creativity, Riddles and Fate. Surrender! For I am but a Messenger from Divinity Ancestors and the Wise! I Am the Humble wizard of the hedgerow!” Who Sings Now?... In and Out of Shadows with a Hatful of Tricks

Yes, this gentle Teacher is just the one to turn to for such comfort :) I was off trying to learn how to make a clickable link here at Gather, which I did. So, now I can leave a link in posts like this one so readers can follow it to answer the riddle within each poem. :) what fun! I felt the light and dark in this shot really reflected this Teacher's dual nature quite well... your comment reassures me on that :) wishing you sweet and healing dreams
Thank you for posting to GutterGirls~
