The Fading Sun... Poem by Penni Currie

The Fading Sun...



The fading sun, the fading light
Hastening on to mid-winter night
The bracken turning rufous red
The hedgehog to his winter bed
The God, as Tanist between the Gates
The Goddess, as Cailleach, still she waits
The falling leaves, the falling rain
Until Spring comes round again
