Differences

by Bill Turner   Mar 15, 2006


Witches dancing in the fire light
Ancient rituals being played out
Sanctity of the moonless night
As the players sing and shout

Pagan sun worshippers calling
Demanding the return of the sun
Stars from the sky keep falling
As they pray to the one

Druids wander the country plain
Speaking in their masterful tongue
Thoughts and prayers bringing rain
Their members scattered and far flung

Wiccan masters of the earth complete
Their ways simple and pure
Preservation and use of nature their feet
Gentle and mistaken for sure

Are they so different from the others?
Worshipping in their own unique way
Why are they ridiculed by their Christian brothers?
That is not supposed to be the way
