Soul
Moving forward with Soul
Truth is the connector to the Soul
When the trappings of Ego are laid to rest
And the sweet sound of the Soul
Rises to sing
In triumph and love.
When the individuals life journey
Is met with a bow
to the almighty forces of the shifting
Wind.
When the traveler understands in the deepest of manners
There is no point to fighting with the Wind.
That one must align the gifts so freely given
To be in step with the Wind.
Regardless of the desires of
the natural self.
That life requires a letting go
An acceptance of that which
May seem unfair or unreasonable.
It is in the letting go
And the joining
That the true power
Of Truth is given
to the simple one.
