Lilithโs Song
A Samhain Incantation ๐โจ
Lilith doesnโt hide her magic
Lilith doesnโt fear the dark
Lilith goes where she is needed
Where her creation needs a spark
*
Youโd think, after a thousand years
That sheโd be tired or afraid
But Lilith doesnโt shirk her task.
She knows just for what she was made
*
Lilith has a magic way
Of knowing where youโve hid your fear
She excavates the parts of you
Whose dying breath was almost near
*
She helps you see that to be whole
Is better than to just belong
But by her side, youโll have that too.
For every woman knows her song
*
Lilith comes to light the fire
Lilith comes to own the night
Her spirit is your soulโs desire
Sheโs your truth, spoken outright
*
She comes to you when youโre afraid
To hold you, and then set you freeโ
All she wants is what you want.
To be yourself, and blessed be

I've always been so fascinated with Lilith! I enjoyed this poem so much!
This reminds me of the re-imagining conference with United Methodist Women held a few decades back where they worshiped God using the name "Sophia". Traditionalists went ballistic, accusing them of heresy in spite of the fact that everything they used, said & did was thoroughly biblical. Sophia is the name of God's wisdom in the Septuagint (Hochmah, in the Biblical Hebrew), so prevalent in Proverbs. Certainly every bit as biblical as Father, Spirit, Rock, Mother Hen/Eagle or the Rock which gave us birth. (Oops, they don't like those last three, either, no matter how many times they sing "On Eagle's Wings".) In case you couldn't tell, I love this poem.
Nailed it. All we have to be, is our most authentic self. That's all that's required. I love this
