Lady of Jabel
Along the warm sea coasts of wise and kindly folk
An open-air temple of cut stone overlooks the waves
Here the Nature Mother adorns her industrious people
She disdains the savagery of conquest and oppression
In favor of clever networks sharing and distributing her abundance
Sacred Kings are merely her distant cousins
Here the Circle is Balanced and there is Council
Her swift ships protect her folk from the madness of the world
Isis herself sees fit to suckle one of her very babe kings in showing a great pact
She abides by contract and is appeased by its honor
Her folk are immortal – hidden from the profane by secret honor
Rising from the deadening blows of mad enemies
The rebirth of the Phoenix hidden from their restless eyes
She smiles on the Lord of Health and Well-Being
Her children explore enjoyment yet keep sober wits
May her egregore rise again among the fray who truly care
May the circle be unbroken and the council be in tune
Harmony is her legacy
Love is her Essence
Peace is her Nature
Wisdom is her domain
The Wise flower is hard to grow among the coarse weeds of ignorance
She rises in fertile realms protected from callousness
She resembles the Eastern Swan Mother who strums among the shining ones
Fragile and delicate is the Natural World
She appears with her children and is gone when conditions allow not their way
They know how to disappear into the contemporary
May she arise among us secret travelers whose enemies attack us from within
May the wise council rule within and without
She is the mother of the power of the sharing of words and bounty
Her folk are wise explorers who make the ability to go where even the hardiest of
warriors fear to tread
Her folk connected the vicious and suspicious world of tribes
So come ye fellow travelers – Let us make merry and hold Our Lady aloft
