    Step through the Sylvan Doorway into the realm of the Goddess and the Green Man, where the horned one walks the leaf-dappled pathways and bright Áine dances in the greenwood at Midsummer.
    Feel the spirit of the trees and hear the stones whisper in a land where the Fae will sing you into another time and space.
    Come closer to the fire as the shadows lengthen and the beauty of the night surrounds you; dance to the tunes of your ancestors, hear the legend of Odin’s Wild Hunt and dark tales of immortal desire. And then remember the wise ones who have gone before.
    Spiral Dance bids you welcome.

about

Adrienne put a melody to go with Richard Jones’ magical poem, we have followed it up with an traditional Irish tune set we call the Red Haired Girl Set.

lyrics

I shall tell you tales of heroes
And Gods who walked as men
On mountains where the wild wind blows
Or across the darkling fen
I shall tell you tales that minstrels told
Of vengeful queens and warriors bold
Of kings who sleep and ne’er grow old
In caves their dreams residing
I shall tell you tales of outlaws
And hounds that roam the night
Of secret realms through hidden doors
Where ancient giants fight
I shall tell you tales of long-lost lands
Buried now ‘neath shifting sands
Where dancing maids have long held hands
In stone their spirits writhing
So come gather by the fire
Let the moonlight be our stage
The stars shall be our choir
And the darkness be our page
Bring forth the souls of days gone by
With a thousand tales they’ll fill the sky
Till the glowing embers fade and die
And the night’s cloak folds around us
