Wise Women

wise women of the western moon
your incantations are powerful tonight
the sun is gone, the fey are aswoon
you bring to the forest an unearthly light

wise women of the fearsome fire
your wishes for the greater good
are heard by the ancients by way of lyre
you are enhancing the oaks in the wood

wise women of the inner circle of star
your wisdom is traveling beyond the meadow dew
hopefully your dreams are traveling far
to the ears of those who can grant them for you
