A Prayer for Spring
I pray to you, Demeter, to remind you of the spring,
for Persephone has come home to you,
your little girl, now a great queen.
Show us your joy, mother of grain, at her homecoming.
Warm the Earth, make the ground soft,
so we may walk barefoot again in the grass
and plant the seeds that will grow all summer
until the harvest, when your full power will be known
and everyone will see what you have done.
But now it is the time to begin these great deeds.
Bring us the spring, that together we might produce the harvest.
Warm the Earth, that the plants might grow so we
might display your gifts.
With your tears cried for happiness, melt away the
winter’s snow and nourish the waiting seeds.
