This is the first time I participate in any blog party. This is mostly because I am always afraid I will forget, but this year MagalyMagaly (I am not sure how I added the second Magaly, but I kinda like it) really inspired me. So, here is my contribution into the party.
I breath your name into the air inside a circle white. Where there is salt can be no fault the witch's song I rhyme.
I breath my name Into the air, your soul a piece of mine. I miss you so, through burning tears I see the candle's light.
I feel your presence you are in my room. I smell you on my right. I turn to see, there's nothing there the veil I can not fight.
Where were you, it's been so long, you, only friend of mine.
I breath your name into the air, I breath it times nine.
A drop of blood my finger leaves, the burning mandrake to embrace
The fumes engulf you in your black you stare me back with grace
It's just a picture of your youth to me my best keepsake
Your heart, your soul, your loving hands I never will forsake.
I release you now times three,
Forever grandma blessed be!

Beautiful poem and what a loving tribute to your grandmother!
Oh sweet goddess, I could feel the magic in this post. Your love for your grandma is strong and no veil is match for it. She felt your love as clear as a physical hug, I'm sure. Sending you hugs and strength dear Greek Witch.
What a lovely remembrance/ritual! The ending, where you release her is so poignant.
What a beautiful and heart-felt ritual. There is equal parts honesty and magic to it.
