Lofty Castle
A lofty castle of my own
Like Crusoe pulls up the ladder to be alone
Steerforth, he is our guiding star
Inns of molten blue; that’s our repertoire
“Fill full your cups”

I hear the squawk of corkscrew sound
Long before it’s needed for the next maroon round
I’ve laughed at my own jokes all night
How town sharpens an appetite

Trickling trust divine
“Crackling fever” free
“Unaccustomed wine”
What deceiver it could be

“Vast truths that mortals seldom” found

I heard someone fall down the stairs
False reports the tumbler was in fact truly yours
Perhaps there’s foundation after all
I’m on my back on the passage floor

Trickling trust divine
“Crackling fever” free
“Unaccustomed wine”
What deceiver it could be

“But still we held as time flew by”

Who’s that smoking right by the fireplace? It was me!
Who’s that leaning out of the window? It was me!
Contemplate one self in the mirror? That was me too!

Trickling trust divine
“Crackling fever” free
“Unaccustomed wine”
What deceiver it could be

“Drink to me only with your eyes”

Song for a Winter's Night - Lyrics  
The lamp is burnin' low upon my table top 
The snow is softly falling 
The air is still in the silence of my room 
I hear your voice softly calling 
If I could only have you near 
To breathe a sigh or two 
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love 
On this winter night with you 

The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead 
My glass is almost empty 
I read again between the lines upon each page 
The words of love you sent me 
If I could know within my heart 
That you were lonely too 
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love 
On this winter night with you 

The fire is dying
Now my lamp is growing dim 
The shades of night are lifting 
The morning light steals across my window pane 
Where webs of snow are drifting 
If I could only have you near 
To breathe a sigh or two 
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love 
On this winter night with you 
And to be once again with you

'I rarely make covers, but this one came in May 2023 just after Gordon Lightfoot passed away. My dear friend JC mentioned it was his favourite Lightfoot song, and I decided to make him a special Birthday present. So the cello instrumental was a present at first. 

I met Tréson at another friend's Birthday Party in July 2023. We connected and said we would do music together! We were talking about covers one day, and I mentioned to him that I have one made already!! He was thrilled when I said it was a Gordon Lightfoot tune! Tréson came into my closet studio to record the vocals (my first time doing any vocal recording!) and it was mixed and mastered by my amazing Rage Angel co-creator, Craig Robert McConnell. 

So here you have both versions...which I love dearly.' - Margaret Maria

We know, what we know, until we know more. We see what we see, until we see more. Life a cycle of continual growth and learning of understanding.

Ils trouvaient que le monde n'était pas assez fou comme ça : alors pour faire bon poids ils ont choisi... Trump!!! Ben moi, quant les Musk et les réseaux sont au pouvoir, face à la déconne générale, je dis  : "déconnexion"! (manière pacifique et un tantinet désespérée, j'en conviens, de faire "sécession")

Samhain
The púca
Of all the ghosts and fairies abroad on Halloween, the púca (or pooka) was the most feared and October 31st was known as Púca Night in parts of Ireland. The púca, meaning 'goblin', can be malevolent or benevolent and is not solely associated with Halloween. It's a mythological fairy and the ultimate shapeshifter, capable of appearing in a variety of forms but most commonly as a dark horse or part dog.

Spring Solstice


Winter Solstice 
The Winter Solstice is an astronomical phenomenon that marks the shortest day and the longest night of the year. In the Northern Hemisphere, the Winter Solstice occurs on 21 or 22 December, when the sun shines directly over the tropic of Capricorn. At sunrise on the shortest day of the year, for 17 minutes, direct sunlight can enter the Newgrange monument, not through the doorway, but through the specially contrived small opening above the entrance known as the ‘roof box’, to illuminate the Chamber.

April
First swallow of the year
Welcome, welcome
From out of mud in lakes
Were you resting there?



March

Unveils like a first thought
A whisper



February

"Nothing stands out yet", you said
As you looked over your shoulder
Broad and rounded, square and hunched
I thought I heard you say, "We are water
And over time we solidify"

January
Snow white egret
among fields of greenandbrown
Are you lost in its vastness?
Bubulcus ibis.

DE-cem- ber
Silver EEL migration 
down river to the sea
on a moonless night

through
an obstcale 
of nets
Cutting blades
pollution
And 
Par -a -sites
White egret



December
Mild to touch, not yet winter
snow drop dropping still
daffodil 

November, can I surrender to your dying
Are you truly dying or surrendering



Is it not enough to be ALIVE, autumn 
As birds migrate thousands of miles, autumn
Of an inner stirring and outward knowing

Is BE-ING
to Our Mind
bor -ing

As summer turns, it turns
To autumn, autumn
The slugs and worms live at the root; 
The slugs eat the juice of carrot
Is it good for their EyEs too...?

I buried a 'th' in the soil
With vowels and nettles
And I, this eyE, aye, oh
This What...?
This sometimes
Known thing
Doesn't kNOW oh oh

Winter take, take these
Sor rows, lay them
Deep ee eep
To become worms
for the birds to eat


ever ever
Denied to
