Written for the mini-slam, March 4th, 2005
She danced on the labyrinth
Covered in veils,
Seven they numbered
Like rainbow sails;

As she danced each layer
Uncovered revealed
A different color,
A different seal,

Until she removed
The blue veil, 'twas seventh,
Revealing the crown,
The moonstone from heaven.

The divine sorceress
Danced through the night,
Until she found peace
In the morning light.

With fragrance of lavender
Floating around,
She danced until she fell
To the ground

At the foot of the altar
With seven steps,
And there she safely,
Peacefully slept;

And the seven candles
Lifted their light
To the Universe
All through the night.
