Poem For Isis

Goddess Isis, Great mother

You who surrounds us with the light of love

You who holds Your children in Your arms

You who protects Your little ones beneath your wings

Your child beseeches You

To come and teach, guide, and heal

Pour forth Your wisdom on Your child

That she may grow in the light of knowledge

And be filled with insight and discernment

Lead Your daughter in the ways she should go

Instruct her in the mysteries

Of magick, life, death, love, and womanhood

Guide her heart and mind

Good Mother and Faithful Lover

Your little one cries out to you

Touch heart and mind

Heal and fill with love and compassion

Deepen her understanding of shadows and light

That she might know a more perfect joy

And that she may appreciate the value

Of tenacity, loyalty, devotion, and undying passion

Love her and fill her with Your grace

With the wonder of a small child

Your daughter reaches for Your hand

And thanks You for the blessing of Your presence

Hestia

Gentle first born of the Olympians

You are the flame that burns bright in all things

You are the crackling fire on every hearthstone

The one who is the center of every home

Your love and blessings radiate in the warmth of Your touch

Your protection roars in the fire of Your watchful eye

The spark of light and life leaps from the flame that is You

Virgin Goddess

Bringer of happiness and blessing

Provider of contentment and peace

You who lives in the innermost dwelling

The very heart of the home

Protector and shield

Whose arms reach wide

Embracing house, town, and city

Queen of the hearth

You who is the reality of the spirit of home

Guide and guardian of family and community

Mighty and compassionate Hestia

I welcome You to my home

a mothers sorrows a mothers joy

Goddess of growing things

Mistress of love

Sacred womb of the earth

Tender of the fields

Turner of the seasons

Grieving mother

That weeps for a daughter’s loss

Her suffering bringing

Cold rain and icy tears

Her womb barren and desolate

Till the daughter rises from the darkness

Her celebrating heart

Covers the world with blossoms of life

The sun glows with her smiles

The earth warms and brings forth her bounty

Flowering joy and light

Bursting forth the essence of life

Blessed Mother of the earth

Mut

Mut

Great Lady of Isheru,

Lady of Heaven

Queen of the Gods

Mother and daughter of the sun God

You the primal waters of being

Protective Mother Vulture

Under your all encompassing wings

Your children are sheltered

Consort of Amun

The Eye of Ra

You a force of nature

Ferocious Goddess of retribution

Great Mother and protector of all

Bright Amaterasu

Goddess of that bright illumination

Queen of the sun

You who is the distant radiance

Yet are the light that warms the soil

Your eyes glow with fire

Your hair a halo flame

You are the day’s strong sunlight

And the heat that warms the soul

I stretch my hands towards your brilliance

And look behind to see the shadow

Your light so visible and empowering

Exposing truth and deceit

Revealing beauty and joy

A strong light filling the skies with glory

Great Goddess of splendour

Who casts her warm glow to the far reaches

Whose presence touches all the earth

From Your throne in Heaven You shine

Tiamat

Ancient tâmtu,

Waters of chaos

You the primordial scream

Giant winged dragon

You are the ti ama

“The life mother”

Mother of the Gods

You roared

And from the maelstrom

Birthed all creation

Unable to unmake

That which was created

Your love and wrath

Created and destroyed

And created once again

Your body the heavens and the earth

Your life blood the oceans

The tears of your eyes the great rivers
