Lifting the veil

I once had a cocoon

In which I grew and I bloomed

Within that chrysalid

I blossomed and I hid

\\\\

I once had a magic cloak

Under which I invoked

From beneath its protection

All sorts of benedictions

////

For me and mine, of course

But you and yours, as well

I share what I know of Source

In code, story, and spell

/\/\

I now remove the shield

And light up every field

For once I had camouflage

And once I was mirage
