Rise Like the Phoenix
Born illumined, with an open fontanel,
we were then entwined with universal mind
but crown closed as we grew, which did not bode well
for soul now trapped in ego's remorseless bind
and so we sank until we let out a yell,
screaming for freedom and since God's always kind,
He bestowed divine grace, igniting love's flame,
whereupon bliss drenched, we rose in life's endgame.
