Avalon

By Lisanka

I was inspired to write this poem after reading The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley. I have nothing against Christianity, I merely was writing from a pagan perspective for this piece. Please read and review!

O sweet land

Where the Goddess and God reigned

Surrounded by the Summer Sea

In summer, the fires of Beltane would burn

While men and women would pleasure themselves

The priestesses

Learning of nature, magic, and the Goddess

All of that is dying

Corrupted by the Romans and Christians

Dying, dying, all is dying

Never more to return

Never more to return.
