"Stonehenge Reclaimed" by Selena
One misty morn on Salisbury Plain
-- A swirling came about
-- A snake of people circling in
-- From east, north, west and south
Before the dawn they did arise
-- Before the sun they crept
-- Into ancient henge of stone
-- Across the plain they swept
This place, since ancient times has seen
-- Great many a celebration
-- The rituals of joy and mirth
-- For earth and her changing seasons
A circle of people, a circle of stones
-- Double helix spiral dance
--Weave together, twine as one
-- Life force creation pulse!
We give our love to the sacred earth
-- We people wild and free!
-- Our mother calls us home to her
-- And now we must take heed
It has begun - it has begun!
-- The magic of the land
-- We move as we are meant to do
-- Rekindling spirit, hand in hand
But violence has scarred this place
-- Where sun and moon are bound
-- Blood of tribal people spilt
-- And marked this sacred ground
Now ten long years have passed since then
-- One score one hundred moons and two
-- The wheel of fortune, changing, turns
-- And now we come anew
And somewhere, somehow, midst the web
-- The dark ones lose their power
-- And our hearts, touching, touch the earth
-- We root, and now, we flower
And so returns the dragon green
-- Returns the dragon red
-- And by her fiery spirit flame
-- Are earth and people fed
And midst the Stones we danced and sang
-- A magic day was truly seen
-- Until the golden sun did set
-- over our land, lush and green.
