Bona Dea

Good Goddess Bona Dea
We celebrate Your rites
Female only festivals.
All men are out of sight.

You safeguard our fertility
As we worship at your feet
With flowers, wine and vine leaves 
And a serpent, when we meet.

So Bona Dea praise you.
Give us fruitfulness in birth.
Empower us to be feminine
And champion our worth
