The Call

 





As I stroll down the path feeling the snap of twigs and give of the moss and leaves under my feet. I close my eyes and take a deep breath, The smell of the pines, the damp earth, the tiniest hint of jasmine in the air. I open my eyes and look to the sky and I see a Raven circling above me. I hear her voice. My child, why have you ignored my call? I have sent it to you in the breeze as it danced through the trees. And you have not listened. I have sent it on the wings of my Ravens. And yet you have not listened. I have sent it through the water as it swirls over the stones in the river as it flows. And yet you have not listened. I have sent it in the waves as they have crashed upon the shore, and yet you have not listen. So, now here I stand. Walk with me my child, tell me what lays so heavy on your heart that you can not hear when your Raven Queen calls to you? Do you think I do not see your pain? Have you forgotten who you are? You have seen war, fought many battles. This is not new to you, You are the daughter of the Raven Queen! Stand tall and remind them who they are dealing with! And with that she was gone. There I stood, alone in the woods reminded of the power I hold within. I raised my face to the sky, filled my lungs and release my battle cry. I know who I am. I am the daughter of the Raven Queen, a daughter of Morrigain, And I am a Warrior!!


I am the storm

  A warrior does not give up.  Her shoulders may bend under the weight of  her struggles. But she will dig her heels in, take a deep breath,...
