Analysis of Questions and Answers
Carla J Suggs 1953 (CA)
Do you see me as I am, all the hidden sides of me?
Have you seen my many faces?
Have you heard my many names?
Do you know me?
Have you seen me upon the moonrise?
Have you heard me in the winds' sighs?
Have you felt me in the thundering tides?
I am the Virgin maiden...
Filled with innocence and hope...
I am the Earth Mother...
Full of life and love...
I am the Crone...
Full of the Wisdom of the Ages...
I am the Threefold Goddess...
