I am a Priestess of Avalon because I love this Land and it sings to me, sings of what
it has always been, and of my part in its story now.
‘DEDICAND’
I have stood in this place before.

Here with my Sisters.
I have walked here
Heart trembling
In new robes
My feet searching out
The old path
Step by step.
I have stood here before
Swept away by the glorious storm
Inside me.
Held by the majesty of the oaks
Rooted deep in this Land.
And lifted my eyes
And met yours
My Sister
Across this Circle.
And known it
Not for the first time.
And felt the fire shoot through me
Connecting me deeper –
Land, tree and Sister
Together again.
I have stood here before.
