A verse to remember

I hold the key to the palace of my soul 

on earth, we are briefly brilliant

soul first 

body bound

gravitational pull

piercing presence

pulsating 

senses to make sense 

of what the soul sings 

Life’s landscape 

where people listening have come to forget 

I sing to remember 

To hear the resonance of my voice

The expression of liberty it leaves lingering in hopeful sound

A lark at day break

meeting morning 

I bid farewell to shadows of a past self

versions that no longer fit

beckoning beginnings
