Poem by Grinningwolf, 2/2003
Arranged for Brighid’s Rosary by Janet Fischer, 8/2003

On each of the first three beads pray:

1. You are blessed with the strength of the mountains.

2. You are blessed with the reach of the trees.

3. You are blessed with the deep secrets of the oceans.

  On the black onyx pray:

Fall not down.

Bead 1:  Fall not down to your knees in supplication.

Bead 2:  Stand before creation and show that you are proud of your divine gifts.

Bead 3:  Fall not down to the earth in defeat.

Bead 4:  Reach down to touch the earth in reverence.

Bead 5:  Speak not your failures.  Sing out your victories won in the Earth Mother’s name and with the Sky Father’s strengths.

  Repeat to final black onyx.

  On last three beads pray:

1. You are blessed with the strength of the mountains.

2. You are blessed with the reach of the trees.

3. You are blessed with the deep secrets of the oceans.
