The mugwort was finally ready for harvest today. Considering I have meetings early tomorrow morning, I decided to gather before the moon reaches her fullest. As I worked, a sort of poetic prayer took form. I actually paused to scribble it out. I hope you enjoy it.
Plucked with finger
Snipped with love
Pruned with sing-song
Sung above
Drop of red blood
Splash of tea
Magic flower
Come with me
Plunged in water
Bound up tight
Dance with me in
Lunar light

I read this earlier,and tried to comment, but had a few issues with the phone. So, I found your poetry excellent. I could visualize everything you described. Have you thought about collecting your verses, and perhaps publishing them as a collection ? I know I would by a volume,as I have worn my other books of poetry out. Just a thought.
Oh wow! That’s truly a compliment. I’m so glad you liked it! Perhaps someday, though this poem is more likely to end up in one of my fiction books as if another character wrote it. 😀
