Taranis moving
across the dark sky!
Hail to the Thunderer!
Taranis moving
His chariot wheels cry!
Hail to the Thunderer!
Taranis moving
His lightning bolts fly!
Hail to the Thunderer!
Taranis moving
I roar my reply!
Hail to the Thunderer!
*We have had very hot weather here in the UK which has been broken by some much appreciated thunderstorms. Whilst I was reading a book in the midst of one this evening a massive roar of thunder made me leap from my seat. I interpreted as a sign that Taranis, ‘the Thunderer’, desired some acknowledgement. I poured Him some tea but it didn’t seem enough. So I wrote this poem and read it for Him and will continue to use it to show my appreciation when, again, He brings our much needed rain.

You’ve had thunderstorms?! We’ve just had fog or mist here in my corner of the Yorkshire Coast, followed by the searing heat of the spiteful sun above 😭
It’s come here now!!
We are finally getting some much need rain down here – of course it is only a few days to Glastonbury Festival, so I guess that should no surprise, really.
Thunder is such a big part of the summer here in New England. We’ve only had one of two really good storms so far, but nothing beats the smell of lightning-rain! Eala Thunor!
Excellent, love the beat to this!
