JEHANAH
(1941-2010)
Beltane Festival
MONARCH BEAR GROVE
Sunday, May 8th, 10:00 to 12:00
bring yourself, bring a friend, bring poems, stories, and songs
dance again, laugh again, sing again, feed the ravens again
wear your finest fae frock in honor of the Fairie Queene
bring a colorful ribbon and take a whirl around the Maypole
come out and play again, and share your memories of Jehanah
mother, grandmother, aunt, poet, and druid grove mother
Heading West into Golden Gate Park, follow Middle Drive E. On the South side of the street, across from the Academy of Sciences, between the AIDS Memorial Grove and the Handball Courts, there is a grassy clearing leading up the hill to a path on the right. Monarch Bear Grove is situated at the top of the knoll,
and there you will find the stones.
Beautiful Picture and looks to be a lovey event,

Fast asleep-----
Heartbeat slows to ceasing
After the stroke of midnight
And then
Jehennah rises immediately from slumber
From her bed upon spotting
A wandering monarch,
The bear the rest of Humanity declared a king.
Jehennah follows the great brown bear
Through her bedroom door
Serving as a threshold
To a warm sunny forest
Of redwoods & aged oaks &
Dirt trails formed from human travellings,
Where she has free rein to commence
Her spiral dance.
Tributes paid in graceful
Movements across soft grass to
All four directions, the yin, the yang & her beloved
Chosen goddess.
The monarch bear,
Spirit-animal of her literary
Lifelong prayers,
Led her here.
Jehennah is the iconic, poetic Druidic
Mother of a new grove
In the hereafter.
