Rain Faeries

The sky goddess weeps with joy and the rain faeries dance upon the petunias.  Pansy faces smile.  'Tis a beautiful time in Fondis. 

No matter the weather, the donkeys belt out a morning bray far more reliable than a rooster.  The new burro boy wheezes, trying to imitate his elders.  His name:  Donkey Hotay.  Edgar Rice Burro nudges the new fellow aside, and continues to eat the hay I offer.  They eat in the shelter of the hay, not noticing the magnificence of the day.

Epona's Welcome

First Spring

The days are growing toward the sun.

The earth stirs in her slumber

As she feels the tickling touch

Of gentle light.

I sift through the drift of dead leaves

To find hiding under it

The surprise of green threads of grass

Vibrant in the new light.


Enter and be welcome!  Epona Maris
