Gilbert Williams, Isis Rising

Dana
“Daughter of eternal Good and mother of its light
Bring forth from out of Self’s own centre
The morning's child and darling of the sun.
My throat is all afire in search of you
And my tongue stutters out your holy name.
Smile now on your children lost in the night
Reach out your hand to them in their darkness,
Disperse with May-sweet breath their darksome thoughts
As you disperse the meadow-mists at morning time.
Lead us, yea lead us all to your cauldron of hope
That all our being may flow in one magnetic stream.
Then will we take our boats to the billowing sea
And as the milky way shines its peaceful path
We will cross the waters of the night-time sky
To disembark on new-day golden sands.
And to lead us on our half-known way
Flood once more the earth with your blue-eyed sons
That through their song we may remember thee.
Let not unbelieving scorn approach you,
Nor lift your ancient veil to baneful doubt,
But dispense your fire to the worthy ones
So we may hear again those souls aflame
Singing your praise in magic melody
Giving new life to your best-loved arts
Healing the broken heart of everyman
Scattering the fruit of your hazel tree
Soaring high on the wings of prophecy
Ever upwards, likewise ever inwards.”
— Pat Kelly

On Peace
“Enwrapped in mystic thoughts of light and love,
I pondered on all those blessings that Peace
From before the dazzling throne of heaven brings
To save our souls from the perils of the world.
For She had often smiled from purpling Mossbrae Heights
As I lay amid the holy harebell
And ever-remembering forget-me-not,
On the gentle bank where Settlement Wood
Sighs in the arms of the open hill.
And her breath of wild rose and meadowsweet
Had sometimes dimpled the waters of Dodhead
As majestic Ra with all his entourage
Embarked upon his journey in the West
And turned the bluest skies to Isles of Gold and Fire.
I have seen her dance, all pink and violet,
Between the Scottish pines which with me climbed
Above the fairy Dell whose splashing burn
Flung gems on mossy banks as green as emeralds are,
And silver-veiled and slender limbed
She has graced the shimmering birchwood,
Or bathed herself within rainbowed sheen
That floats above the flowers of the meadow
As fresh as any dew beneath the rising sun.
But mostly, I have accompanied Her
To breathe the breath of silent Hyndhope nights,
Rising far above this world of greedy men
To gaze upon the softly flaming stars,
Who together join in one harmonious chord
To fill the deepest space with praise of Her,
Our Sacred Mother and Holy Queen of All.”
— Pat Kelly
