Wild and Wise Women

"May the blessing of rain be on you,
the soft sweet rain.
May it fall upon your spirit
so that small flowers may spring up
and shed their sweetness in the air.

May the blessing of great rains be on you
to beat upon your spirit and wash it clean;
and leave there many a shining pool
where the blue of heaven shines,
and sometimes a star."
