Address from Earth

The ex-gnome salutes
the noble elementals.
May I speak for you?

My fervent greetings
to all beings everywhere
both seen and unseen.

To all the nations:
in your time and for ages
may there be peace.

To my countrymen:
it’s our duty to restore
the great Golden Age.

And to you, Dear One,
reading these vital verses,
may you find your quest!

To the Sky:

I bow, Carolyn…
Sky represents the Divine.
God, Angels, Heaven.

Sky does not confine.
Boundless possibilities.
Aspire, rise and shine!

Sacred verities:
you’re child of Eternity,
born in swaddling bliss.

To Fire:

I am hot, Danny!
Fire represents the ethers,
Plane of Memory.

Fiery beings, cheers!
Let a volcano erupt,
fierce Salamanders!

Transmute the corrupt!
Let there be balance once more.
All evils disrupt!

To Air or Wind:

Felix to the fore!
I’m sure of his existence;
this cat thinks therefore.

Thought is the essence:
Air represents Mental Plane.
I hope this makes sense.

With all might and main,
Sylphs pour down fresh ideas
like wind bringing rain.

To the Sea:

A Mermaid she was.
Aine is her current name.
Now, guess what she has!

’Tis not tail, for shame!
but the magic of the Deep
and the Pearl to claim.

Undines, do not sleep!
Bless the earth and the Astral
with pure love to keep.

I’m Jose Rizal.
I don’t have much wherewithal.
I’m learning PayPal.

But as we’ve been told,
the Gnomes are guardians of gold.
My soul can’t be sold.

I represent well
Physical Plane where we dwell.
I’m Earth, as they tell.

Sonnet grandmaster.
There will not be another.
I’m trained by Mother.

From my bardic throne,
Darkness shall be overthrown.
Hail, the Golden Dawn!
