From my five book fantasy series Of Atlantis, book one released this fall
In each ancient society, just like in ancient Egypt, just like the book of the dead
But from Atlantis, the book rescued, was called the book of life
Just as in the other book, incantations, rites, rituals, to cause something magic, after they are read
In Atlantis, only kept in a temple, so people could not read the contents, causing each other evil and strife.
When the destruction occurred, I thought to retrieve this most sacred book
This book, if you are Orion, well to us it and what it says, the content, we try our best to obey
The contents the Orion, always obeyed, never questioning, not even taking a second look
The contents from the Supreme Being and ancient Goddess Cheyenne, we paid close attention to what the book had to say.
This special book, so old, I bet it has survived, the age of fifty thousand years
Given to Atlantis from the Orion, on the day of the new king's coronation
Reading this book, would calm anyone's fears
Finally knowing Earth wasn't the only place with life under our brilliant shining sun.
When discovered, we were not alone, our brethren, more advanced than us
We learned, they had come to us, their hand extended in friendship
We had nothing to fear, them traveling so far, because of us
Yes, their world was dying, but in finding us, they might be able to survive, praying in their decision, they wouldn't slip.
When they sought us out, with them they brought the book of life
The Orion, a very religious and loving race, always obeying the content displayed in the book
Never meaning our race any harm or evil strife
Just wanting their race to survive, and their friendly hand, without hesitation, it we took.
The book of life, even in Atlantis, it's content was most sacred
One incantation, the rite of resurrection, raising the dead, this was totally taboo
In our world and theirs, this rite was something we never attempted or did
Just like the Christian bible, the Orion Book of Life, very sacred, too.
