Elixir Of Life

Exilir-of-Life-stanza-oneReach out dear heart, for there within thy mind,
you have the power to touch and hold
Reach out dear love your arms made strong
with understanding for a better way
Your limbs refreshed with this elixir of the heavenly way.

Exilir-of-Life-stanza-2No magic potion or witches brew is this,
nor steamed within a cauldron that’s hung
upon a blackened dungeon wall
For this elixir fair we drink
’tis of the stuff which life is made.

Exilir-of-Life-stanza-3Yet in the making, steeped deep from out
the golden vessel which holds all heavenly things
And from this golden chalice
comes the things of earth and life
and men who lived this life.

Exilir-of-Life-stanza-fourAnd in the making of this life,
become the fuel which steeps this elixir fair
A potion then to drink ~ he is a man again reborn
And so refreshed in all the things that this elixir is
He journeys on to Paradise.
