Calan Mai Hymn to Creiddylad

I sing for the May Queen,

Head wreathed in fragrant wildflowers

And palms bearing sweet mead

Awaken summer's lusty opulence,

Radiant daughter of Lludd

Most majestic maiden of all the Isles!

Gaze upon this year's players with favor,

As they water the Earth with their blood

And vie for your silvery hand

Guide our steps as we circle the roaring flames,

Warm our bodies and beds with May's melody,

Like your passionate union with Gwyn

Grant us the vigor of summer's sun,

Bless us with the youthful blossom of beauty.

Hail, gentle-hearted Creiddylad!

Salted Rose and Honey Pie | Adventures in Cooking

Not only am I such a big honey fan, but I am just so enamoured with how incredible bees are. I am in LOVE with this Salted Rose and Honey Pie I made!

Happy & blessed (if belated) Bealtine, May Day, & Walpurgisnacht, everyone! ^_^

I had a performance yesterday that kept me busy from around wake-up to 8pm, and from there I went to a big-screen showing of “Labyrinth-” after which I came home and CRASHED.  So, in short, I’m sorry for not getting this out to you sooner. :(  But.. I hope you’ll forgive me, & enjoy this pic of me taken just over a month back (where I got to dance before a bonfire for a very, very special occasion). ^_^ ♥  May you have a merry weekend, and mehopes you have/had a beautiful holiday! ^_^ ♥☼♥
