Diana, Nature's Guardian

Diana, Nature’s Guardian Defending purity, virtues, by preordained, destine. With faithful diligence I oversee all life that’s birthed. Celebrating nature as its radiant guardian Fulfilling life’s desire with independent strength girthed. I am Diana, Goddess of hunting wild animals. Protector of the natural world both domestic and wild, Camels, beetles, jackals, deer, hogs, flowers, myrtles, squirrels - All in my magical care live wonderful lives beguiled. Fertility and childbirth, my responsibility, Accomplished spontaneity living, functioning well. Reflecting light among the beasts with great nobility. An accomplished war-like goddess guarding while lives impel. Hunting dogs track down their prey; fearful deer run. I am there. Staying in the midst of them observing, balancing, and keeping. Preying is part of life’s design sustained with greatest care. Plants and animals live mortal lives wisdom possessing. Plundering men cause great concerns that must be soon resolved. Wreaking havoc here on earth, plowing jasmine, balm, mugwort, Destroying creatures, felling trees, habitats requiem. Man must change his wasteful ways to prevent my last resort. Mother to the animals I recycle elements. Wildlife conservation thrives, careful awareness acting. Take heed ravenous plundering men, lest my anger vents And another species takes your place, last choice exacting. You can find me in my sacred place among quiet oaks. Cherishing my own chastity, purity makes me swoon. Walking in my natural world hearing each frog that croaks. Living flawless beneath God’s sun, reflections from the moon. © August 1, 2010
