The Alchemy of Lead into Gold!

The Alchemy of Lead into Gold!
~
How do I strike Gold in the mind,
discover the truth, the Pearl to find?
This "Rock of Ages" or philosopher's Stone,
inSpires my will to keep on going.
~
Perhaps it is right before our eyes,
the golden Sun that daily rises;
an inner light we take for granted,
questioning what is already answered.
~
Like the children busy parents ignore,
their delightful spirits we want to adore; 
or magical moments here and now,
we missed by just not being around.
~
We worship money for material greed,
far beyond what we really need;
the fools-gold of the atheists,
in whose minds God still persists.
~
We cannot repress our divine essence,
only deny and fall into ignorance;
our spiritual side will not be denied,
 emerges again in another guise.
~
My leaden thoughts of rationality,
into a golden Mind I wish to see;
the alchemical process of immanence,
refines our earth into transcendence.
~
Prima materia is the basic matter,
heavy lead of the primal instincts;
the animal spirit we all have inside,
dragon-fire purifying into light.
~
This flame of life becomes our Gold,
like lust turning into Love behold;
we all undergo these transformations,
from lower to higher sublimations.
~
Seed of the golden "Word" resides,
within the gut of visceral desires;
each must follow their Spirit dreaming,
the lost talent of childlike imagining.
~
For no one can enter Heaven's kingdom,
unless they "become like little children;"
Christ refused to touch Roman coin,
for he was rich with golden Joy.
