A Wine Blessing The grape on the vine has been picked and fermented And soon the vine will wither and sleep We have bottled it's sweet juice for the winter ahead But tonight we shall drink of its warmth As we drink lets us always remember The eternal cycle of life, death and rebirth For soon He will die And soon She will weep And this fruit shall have to live til the Spring Emerges in all her glory and brings with her sweet warmth Til then we must remember Her and our own earth bodies With the ability to bring forth new life should we wish An empowerment by the Goddess A gift to her children To show them the beauty of life. And now, Great Goddess, bless this wine So your children may taste of your wisdom
