Cup your hands and raise outstretched
as a symbol of an open heart --
receive the heavy burdens of life
to transform into shining gold.

Bequeath that all comes first
before a thought of self and pride –
claim the weight of pain and strife
to transform into healing Light.

Sing the ancient selfless song
of those who wrestled magic to earth –
and science and wisdom now held sure
by those we call al’c’m’ists.
