Ancient Wisdom

Climb we upon the heavens

to touch the stars

& we touch the earth.



Climb we down the Spiral of Time

to find out what we were

& we experience rebirth--



Let's reinvent the words,

the symbols and the spells



bring back the ancient gods of love,

the golden rites and sundance

in the night



bathe ourselves in Sun and Moon

and worship the earth



perhaps then she may heal

her mortal wounds



perhaps then, if we remain faithful,

we'll be allowed in Paradise.
