Healing with Spiritual Light--New Moon

A gathering tonight at The Friends House of Eugene (Quakers) to transfigure with light and journey, yielded this poem.

New Moon Journey

by Catt Foy

Spread my wings in a sunny meadow,

Near a seashore.

From a flower I become a dragonfly, a butterfly

Above a bluff, a gull.

Then diving down, beneath the waves,

Becoming sleek, a seal.

To flap and splash on deep blue swells.

Beneath the waves again

Then

Washed ashore, my five star-limbs

Against the sand

Abandoned by the tide

To die, I lie

And watch the setting sun.

The darkness grows,

I glow. A glowing star upon the beach,

A rising star upon the wind

With limbs a-flowing,

A growing star, a northern star

A new Polaris sparkling

In a dark and diamond sky.
