Book of Shadows Poems Written by Laylla & Chelle:
Ostara Ritual Chant - 1999
(from Chelle's coven BoS)
The fire within
The passion without
Bast, She is laughing
Flames dance about

Ostara Poem - possibly 2000
(from Laylla's coven BoS)
Awaken, awaken; earth's rebirth!
Ostara's light brings joy and mirth.
As nature wakes from winters sleep;
new life emerges, roots run deep.
Blessings bloom with the rising sun;
Ostara's dance, new life begun.
