Demeter
Rising
mother earth, father blue skies
old tale for brand new eyes
see sweet child, rolling green plains
caressed by suns and rains
the wheat fields grow, they sway in winds of change
near-bursting with life, so known yet so strange
she’s the dance, she’s the dancer
grand design and designer
call her Demeter, rising from this fertile earth
master plan, laws eternal
what once was is living still
Goddess, touch…
touch and bless us
where water falls o’er rocks
where night-gardens wash the noise of worlds away
as suns turn to moons we can see her play
she’s the dance (now behold from whom the
harvests come)
she’s the dancer (Demeter the strong and wild one)
grand design (bringer of abundance to the earth)
and designer (child of the mother giving birth)
call her Demeter, rising from this fertile earth
she’s the dance (now behold from whom the
harvests come)
she’s the dancer (Demeter the strong and wild one)
grand design (bringer of abundance to the earth)
and designer (child of the mother giving birth)
she’s the dance (now behold from whom the harvests come)
the Midnight Dancer (Demeter the strong and wild one)
Demeter, rise…
