Beltane Blessings

Welcome to "The Gods Are Bored," composing on the fly during substitute teaching break! It's part of the burden of being a Pagan. You always have to work on holy days.

Let us make merry
Cavort with the faeries
'Neath blossoms of cherries
Or bushes of berries!

Oh what a fine day
The first one in May
And so we will say
May joy come your way!

Now we must get paid
Though we'd rather get laid.

A BLESSED BELTANE TO YOU
FROM ANNE
THE MERLIN OF BERKELEY SPRINGS

    Joyous and blessed Beltane to you and yours as well. Due to my own work constraints our own festivities, family friendly and otherwise are being postponed till the weekend.

  6. Hope you had a happy Beltane. Unfortunately I don't have any poetry in me tonight, so I'll just leave you with Big Tex's all-purpose festive cheer:

    Party hardy
    Rock and roll
    Drink a fifth
    Smoke a bowl

Have at it. Except if you are an East Asian escort service. If the latter, you run the risk of a hex.
