Sister Goldenhair

by Ari

Sif by Thalia TookSister Goldenhair, thou art lovely

And as thy feet pass through the fields

Of summer, all is made sacred in thy path.

Mother of Truth, thy voice is like a bell,

And needs no dancing eloquence to resound in me,

Only the simple words that cut to the heart.

Mother of Archers, thou seest what is, and speaks it

Like the shaft flying to its goal.

Beloved of Thunder, thou art the sunrise

Over the mountain, over the meadow,

As the clouds part and pass away.

Sif of the Crystal Cup, teach me to see

What is real, and no more, and say only

What is necessary, and no more, and do only

What is right, and no more.
