Welcome to The Quiet Quill, where I hope you will find something interesting to read and ponder. The words found here are mere musings and meanderings of a feeble mind, a depository of verse and line strung together haphazardly in an effort to evoke a feeling of understanding. Please excuse any poetic license taken through fanciful thoughts, made up words and my atrocious use of commas. Having said that, may you find something that will make you smile, shed a tear, or bring you comfort. Happy reading. ~Koneta The Quiet Quill Ponderings, Meanderings, and Poetry

The Fire Tends to All

Posted on by koneta

A Beltane Celebration Poem

Spark turns to flame
Flickering with life 
Aglow they reach for the sky.
Warmth and light
Spreading outward and up
Dancing embers reaching on high.
Moths to the flame
The revelers come
The Blessings of summer bestowed.
Drums beat the spring tempo
Jump, twirl, grind, and spin
Rejoice all the night
'Fore a new day begins.
The fire we'll take 
Home to the hearth
The promise of life renewed.
The continuing gifts
Of a season reborn
Yet again, The Fire Tends All.
