Old Ones, Dear Ones

by Link, © 1997

Old Ones, Dear Ones, Standing Stones
Ancient time piece, ancient thrones
From Solstice to Solstice and all in between
Beloved King joins beloved Queen.

Old Ones, Dear Ones, to the North
Hear us now, please do come forth.

Old Ones, Dear Ones, to the East
Join us now, please share our feast.

Old Ones, Dear Ones, to the South
Share our kiss, mouth to mouth.

Old Ones, Dear Ones, to the West
Be one with us, oh sacred guest.

Standing Stones from times of Old
Ancient witness to secrets untold.
Throughout time, we've come, we've passed
But your Circle endures and lasts.
