Lee Diamond – The Fountain of Youth
Ponce De Leon
According to the legend
Sought it.
Many claims to it
Are recorded
But always secretive
Only because
There is no such
Magic fountain
And so it must be
Told.
The “Elder” Is to be
Venerated.
For the “Elder” was
The true Fountain
Of Youth .
The “Elder” knows Youth
The “Elder” was Youth
The “Elder” experienced
Youth
The “Elder” raised
Youth
And the “Elder” built
Youth Into Wisdom
And Is in fact
Wisdom.
Israel was built
By Youth
Who grew
To Wisdom
Youth is external
While wisdom is
Internal
And perhaps even
Eternal.
To those who seek
The external
Who seek Youth—
The elixir of beauty
Know that the “ELDER”
Has youth, beauty
and wisdom Combined
So “STAND IN AWE”
Before that
Which is the
True and Only
Fountain FOR Youth.
