The Da Vinci Code Re-visited

            The Da Vinci Code Re-visited



              A golden chalice never held the blood we so revere
              nor did a male Disciple love him more
              those who sought to tell the tale paid penalties severe
              for not accepting Mary as a whore

              Justified yet vilified, like Jesus she was slain
              but bore a child before the deed was done
              she left behind a legacy pre-destined to remain
              though Pope and Church denied the truth as one

              Throughout the ages some have kept the secret safe and sure
                and others left bold clues for us to find
                knowing in their deepest soul that this was something pure
                they tried to open eyes that had been blind

                Legends helped to slide the story into myth so deep
                that even scholars failed to recognize
                a truth so plain and simple it would make a dead man weep
                were he to see it with unbiased eyes

                Some sang tales of Holy Grails that many more have sought
                but none have ever found, or so they say
                Templar Knights, Italian Artists, are but some who fought
                  to keep the tale alive for us today

                  So here, dear reader, is that truth which many would deny
                  the vessel that contained the blood was she
                  who bore the son of Jesus Christ, our Savior in the sky
                  and Mary Magdalene will set us free!
