The Burning Of Incense

the burning of incense creates a calming ATMOSPHERE.
light the aromatic stick, fan the flame.
the sweet scent will comfort your FEARS.
inhale/exhale and wipe away the last of your TEARS.
welcome to the spiritual ritual which has been
recognized for thousands of YEARS.

the burning of incense provide an extraordinary healing EFFECT.
clear your troubled mind, relax and REFLECT.
the reason mistakes from the past are painful,
is to teach us the kind of lesson we will never FORGET.

eat properly, use the restroom regularly and achieve proper REST.
acknowledge the sweet fragrance and CONFESS.
allow the burning of incense to prepare your mind
for the very next TEST.

with years come wisdom.
life is so much more than just growing OLD.
allow the comforting scent of aromatic medicine
to penetrate the parameters of your troubled SOUL.
thank the wise king for frankincense and myrrh,
which is worth more than his gifts of GOLD.
"only the sick is in need of a physician";
this is the moral of the greatest story ever TOLD.

healers, shamans, even the wizard who claim to perform acts of MAGIC
are spiritually motivated by the smoke ascending from
the incense STICK.
this pleasant aroma can be enjoyed by the healthy, the SICK,
the poor and the RICH.
the burning of incense crosses religious barriers too.
the sweet air is welcomed by both the true believer
and the ATHEIST.

when sinful hands become soiled with dirt,
feel free to wash and then RINSE.
for celebration or for spiritual self DEFENSE
whenever uncontrollable sadness threatens to become too INTENSE,
light the stick, fan the flame and reap the pleasurable reward
received from the burning of INCENSE.
