Summer Orison
The blue moon hangs high this sultry summer night;
look not for any sign of man living there.
'Tis Diana the huntress that shines so bright,
protectress of women, whom I offer prayer.
Bathe me in the power of your silver light,
that I may find courage to combat despair.
Oh Maiden Queen of Witches, you I implore,
my will to see the morning you would restore.
~ 2015 RC deWinter
This is my rendering of the head of Diana from "Diana and the Hounds", a cast bronze sculpture that stands outside the Conservatory in the Fitzroy Gardens in Melbourne, Australia. Designed by W. Leslie-Bowles, it was the last statue cast in Britain before the start of WWII.

So lovely!!! Strong and powerful symbol for women. I particularly love the treatment of the hair....It will be fascinating to look at the whole piece later!

How well you know I am going to do the entire statue if I can, Nancy. :-) Thanks very much.
