#philophrosynê devotee

[persphones-hallow]

Hunter of the forests, beside Dionysus he stands in war

Well practiced in the secrets one keeps to himself

Phaunos; son of the sea god Poseidon and the witch Kirke I whisper

With my hands folded in the grass with trees all around me I began to pray

Com to hear, listen, and see for all I am. Let the twigs crack and break underneath your hooves

Thank you for keeping all fair and well in the forest

Kindness and openness, Philophrosynê

Sweet and fair, I call to you

With a smile on my face I welcome you as you welcome me: whole and attentive

I come to sing your name and praise within the air you breathe

Daughter of the gorgeous Aglaiê and the hard working Hêphaistos I come to praise and bow my head

Thank you for being welcome and showing friendliness to us mortals and the gods

Thank you for giving us gifts and being a role model of it
