Golden Age

High-born sage brought forth from the heavens Came with signs to mark his birth Golden age – of wisdom and virtue Time of justice for the earth The Day arrived- foretold by the ancients Healing hatred with his pen Claim denied – and facing rejection Forced to leave his countrymen Golden Age – Sacred Way Another Day – Slow Decay Third eye darkened - a clouded vision Sun obscured by worldly dust Misled masses – misguided leaders Cherished wisdom turns to rust Quest for knowledge - a thirst for power Words perverted to control Progress stifled – the souls left searching Years of darkness take their toll Golden Age – Sacred Way Another Day – Slow Decay
