Invocation for the Prayer of Play by: ysabet@juno.com Elizabeth Barrett |
|
I call the spirit of laughing water I call the spirit of singing wind I call the spirit of dancing fire I call the spirit of drumming earth Sunchild come, son of light Leaping from stone to stone King of the mountain, prince for a day Clad in the mad dash of boyhood Come Little Sister, daughter of light Arms full of flowers, trailing a song Followed by butterflies Speckled with mud Come wild Rogue and frolicsome Maid Merry with magic Remind us how to be children When play was our worship And pleasure our prayer Share with us your wonder All light-hearted spirits Let Goddess and God Lend their grace to our games Let us laugh ourselves silly Throw cares to the wind Let mirth be our magic And humor our hymn! |
