A very big day in The Sacred Garden!! It's are lovely gate keepers birthday! The day has been very quiet and uneventful as I have been quietly setting up for the evenings festivities. The fairies have been kind enough to help me string up the twinkle lights (really they are just hoping for a glimpse of our Sweet Andrew) and I've set up a table of goodies including wine, fresh fruits, cheeses from around the world, assorted crackers and an olive and pickle platter. I have made a small birdseed and honey cake and put those number candles on it for 29 (as she is turning 29 again) Raven pretends not to notice as she updates the gate log and plucks away on her laptop, earbuds a blazin with Zepp!
As twilight assends upon the garden everyone gathers for the festivities, ahhh the garden looks fabulous! I've hired The Library Faerie, Talulah to play Led Zepplin songs on the harp as background music. We all sing happy birthday to our cherished Raven and now it's time for the presentation of gifts!
Leo goes first and barks and howls the guitar solo from 'Stairway To Heaven' (Styve taught him this trick)
Cousin Eddie has made her a crown out of bear cans, it's quite lovely and intricate.
Andrew has given her a Warrant CD with a smile and a wink.
Princess Mydnite has given her an ankle bracelet made from glitterstone mined from Gliridescitas's heart shaped moon.
Dutchess, Atomic Magpie and Atomic Butterfly have made her a handmade paper journal for poetry and flower pressing (of which they have already pressed several flowers from the garden and included them)
Styve has presented her with a poem he wrote and reads it to her:

Styve has presented her with a poem he wrote and reads it to her:
"Black winged warrior swoops down
Steely eyes that cut like an axe for battle,
Born again, another 29th season
Her power makes us all feel mighty.
Happy conquering of mother time, O lovely keeper!" [Styve is notorious for his "interesting" poetic style, he really does try hard and it's from the heart. Remember he spent several hundred years as a warrior]
Atomic Mongoose and Atomic Weasel have given her a piece of wood they found in the Xanadu forest and carved her name in it, so she can lean it up against the base of her birdbath.
Casey gave her his golden stilettos, as he no longer needs them.
Kev has presented her with a beautiful braided necklace he's made out of one of Jimmy Pages old guitar strings.
And I myself has given her Beats earbuds and blue, purple, pink and chartreuse feathers she can wear amongst her own for nights out on the town.
Raven seemed a glow and overwhelmed and said "You Shouldn't Have" But she loved every minute of it!
Wine, cake and hor d'oeuvres are enjoyed and
The Garden Is Happy
