THE SILVER CHALICE

A sacred verse in Holy Writ, a special message brought,
“Drink of my cup for fuller lives,” the ancient Scriptures taught.
So trusted leaders spoke to folks, of high and low renown,
“This Holy Grail we all must seek, and bring it to our town.
Through force we shall retrieve this cup and let our people view.
This precious chalice must be won, and thus man be renewed.”

So every eye searched for this cup, this treasure to bestow,
But only those with hearts renewed would its pure essence know.
And as the years of search rolled on, a new age dawned to show,
The chalice was God’s gift of life, and from within comes flow.
Life’s living waters – spiritual love, kindness given free,
And doing for the “least of these,” Was the message meant to be.

The violence of the Crusades caused death and deep remorse,
By living love, peace is found, that Crusades sought through force.
And shows lives joined in veils unseen, each one a living cell,
Through loving words and kindly deeds found growth for self as well.
True joy arose within each heart as family, friends and all,
Felt renewed with bonds of love in answer to God’s call.

Happy Easter Weekend coming up on April 3rd. Have a wonderful
time with family and friends as special blessings are sent to all.
