How to Read the Tarot

Begin by brewing a cup of tea,
a nervine, lemon balm or chamomile,
this is after all, your future.
A reading at the dark of the moon is best,
before the night creatures crawl
and bad humours fill the air.
Pick a circular deck, with a fairy-tale motif,
and no reversals.
Hold a question in your heart,
shuffle the cards and place them on the table.
Choose only two.
Like the ancient Israelites,
these are your seer stones, Urim and Thumimm,
black and white, yes or no.
Isn't that all you were asking?

Mist

Mist is a puny word.
No weight or gravitas
like fog or deluge.
no sparkle or whimsy
like dew or spindrift.
No muscle and action
like spritz or soak.
The Mists of Avalon
Misty of Chincoteague
misty watercolor memories
I'd rather sob and shudder
with holy tears
than be misty-eyed.
Perhaps it should be relegated
to the mists of time.

Prompt: mist--Gaian Tarot--4 of Water--I allow the sacred waters to pour peace and contentment into me.
