ALCHEMY

What is this mysterious alchemy of living things?
That takes mere atoms and creates birds with wings
What is this strange elixir of molecules and strings?
That makes this strange mélange of breathing things.

Oh sweet mystery of improbable mixtures trite
Combining in ways that allow not just the miracle of sight
But also the capacity to know and wonder at the power and might
Of inexplicable and myriad forms that fill both the day and night.

What mysterious alchemy there is indeed?
That can create both thought and deed
And also form a flower, grass and reed
What is thine source? O’ my God of thee I plead.
