The Magicians Flute

The magicians flute The magicians flute the stage is set high up above Homeric gods sit amongst the clouds like Blake’s image of a greybeard elder holding a compass open and looking down On mortals below Now are you sitting comfortably the ceremony of symphonic joy begins let Merlin and his magic take you in the story of trials tribulations quests and the lessons of fear and doubt of love and magic spells A handsome prince with Magic flute that sings a music that wills the owners wills of Guinevere the lovely Queen of the night ancient myths of Jedi knights dragon’s swords and fire like Frodo and his magic ring He has a philosopher’s stone that rules them in an opera over four hundred years old a feast of arias fairy tales and alchemy of fools and kings and maidens of sacred chords Through sacred rites of Magic spring that comes alive with music to our ears and illuminates the mind in the tempest of the dawn Through his rites of passage he meets the lady of the lake and traveler’s on the road mans inherent search for the mythic real Like the grail and Excalibur’s the test of life we wonder like blood upon the rose where science and alchemy unite dreamers of dreams leave there footprints on the sands of time
