My blog--I pull a card--if it doesn't speak to me...perhaps it is for you?

NaPoWriMo 2018--Day 4
Gunne Sax

Granddaughter, I rescued
this dress for you.
Worn for my first wedding
when I could touch the sky
then sent in a tangled heap
to a Goodwill when the
threads of that marriage unraveled.

Refound in an Arcadia antique store,
and bought again
when you existed only as starlight.

You may not want this dry, dusty gown.
The serpent slithers through stories.

But I offer other, better hand-me-downs.
Truth in your bones.
Sparks in your speech.
And a temple to house
your own divinity.


Dark Goddess Tarot--Amazon of Air--Skadi--Norse Goddess. Independence, authenticity, self-sufficiency.
