JOURNAL: Beltane take III

after long absence: reunion. The gift of a long spring night is a sweetly stolen moment with your fingers feeding me and then taking from me a little token of what I would feed you with.... danger and thrill both. So easy to unsettle you with one sentence and how I love to challenge you, to make you know that it is I before you and no other. Within your cottage I realise that it is so very like my own that they could have been crafted by the same dreaming mind. Omen or coincidence? do we believe in concidences at all, sweet friend? the herbs gathered at Litha at last safe within your hands, to nourish you and give you solace when despair comes near, to cleanse your spirit. Watered by my own hand, cut with my own hand and sacred knife and hung to dry under my roof, a roof you shall sleep under when the time is right. When you drink them sunshine and earth shall mingle on your tongue and mayhap you shall remember me, as I remembered you that day in a land far away. We have lived in so many lands you and I, yet none have managed to make us part for very long.
