The intent of this poem is to help you consciously appreciate and be thankful for the spiritual healing of poetry, music and song.
They heal in an infinite way that nothing else can.
Invoking Thankfulness
Poetry, music and song,
Are uplifting mysteries for your soul and
Heal in a way that chemical medicines cannot.
Healing is both a medical and a spiritual art;
Medicines and good food heal your body but the mind needs,
Poetry, music and song.
The meter and rhythm of poetry, the tonal melodies of music and song,
Are soothing stimulators that relieve sadness, sorrow, stress and
Heal in a way that chemical medicines cannot.
Your physical and mental conditions affect how you feel and perform;
Day by day, you are urged to engage your healing choices of,
Poetry, music and song,
Greet each day with positive expectations for health and joy,
Get your day going with positive music, poetry and song that,
Heal in a way that chemical medicines cannot.
Chemical medicines have finite limitations,
They can help heal the body but the mind needs,
Poetry, music and song that,
Heals in a way that chemical medicines cannot.
