Remembrance

Remembrance

When your tree is bare of fruit and flower

When your stream fills up with blood.

When your heart is gripped by winter's cold

When the world comes armed to tear your soul

Rip it to shreds, beyond hope, beyond love.

To mar with ancient Evil and Sorrow

Your haven of beauteous peace

Remember, then, Child of Eternity

Remember the Lion's roar

Remember the sound of His flute

Remember the smell of His mane

Remember the sound of His great velvet paws

Remember the peacock-feathered crown

Remember you are the Child of Immortal Nectar

Remember your Great Mother

Lady of the stars,

Remember Her blessing on your head.

Remember the voice of your Immortal Father.

The Great ,Beautiful God.

And when you remember the Beauty of His face

You will remember Joy

You will remember your purpose in His world

For you, child of immorality, have been chosen

For He does not choose wrong.

You are His choice

And you are His child

May you never betray His Hope

May you never forget His Grace
