Background
A description of the experience
Elsa Barker – The Mystic Rose
I, woman, am that wonder breathing rose
That blossoms in the garden of the King
In all the world there is no lovelier thing
And the learned stars no secret can disclose
Deeper than mine - that almost know one knows.
The perfume of my petals in the spring
Is inspiration to all bards that sing
Of love, the spirit's lyric unrepose
Under my veil is hid the mystery
Of unaccomplished aeons, and my breath
The Master-Love's life replenisheth
The mortal garment that is worn by me
The loom of Time renews continually
And when I die – the universe knows death
