Destiny (9)
by
Crystal Dawn Allen
Nine waves have carried me
Sea to the land
What has brought me to be
the ninth wave of the sea
Nine maidens have nurtured
Brigid's holy flame
Who has called me to be
the ninth daughter of these
Nine virgins were needed
at Cerridwen's cauldron
What chose me to be
the ninth virgin she needs
And the ninth child is said
to be born into magick
Who conceived me to be
the ninth child, when three
times three is One
Trinity of Trinities
This was your sacred number
not mine, not the nine
So who decided this would be
the path of my destiny
I don't want to be
the ninth wave of the sea
the ninth daughter of fire
the ninth virgin she needs
I don't want to be
the ninth child, if three
times three is One
Trinity of Trinities
