Respect Medicine by JasonManson on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Medicine is not just pills and drugs,
There's more to it than what meets the eye.
It's not just for physical health,
But for the soul and mind as well.

Ayurvedic is a medicine too,
A practice that's ancient and true.
From herbs to massages, it does it all,
A holistic approach, it heals it all.

Diet is also medicine, they say,
What we eat and drink, matters in every way.
It heals the soul and the body alike,
Making us feel better, from inside and outside.

Entheogenism is another kind,
Of medicine that's hard to find.
It's plants and fungi that heal the mind,
Connecting us with our inner Divine.

Respect the medicine, respect it all,
The doctors, the scientists, the herbalists and all.
Don't abuse it, or misuse it ever,
For it's the reason that some of us are here forever.

So let us remember and give thanks,
For the medicine that's saved many lives.
Let us use it wisely and with care,
And respect it, with all our hearts out there.
