A Gift Of Purpose

A Gift Of Purpose

Perhaps I’ve lived beyond my time;
not becoming who I’m to be;
failed to accomplish my soul’s design;
and, only purpose can set me free.

My body and spirit seem now separated;
with my thoughts floating in air;
no longer that being, the

The Second Time Around

The Second Time Around

Most all of us seek a second chance;
seeing how life seems to confound;
to show we’ve learned how to dance;
on our second time around.

Some believe that we only live once;
unlike the grasses and flowers;
temporarily, for a season, ensconced;
living, while

The Superficial life

The Superficial Life

We each possess thoughts of heaven;
for it was the kingdom of birth;
deep recesses of mind now beckon;
our body, in the sphere of earth.

Energy formations, around us, abound;

Many are greatly concerned over security;
fearing what future they may live in;
even more, tend to fear a future obscurity;

“What happens when we die?”
endlessly debated by seers and sages;

Justification

whenever I knew I was wrong;
feelings of guilt; my peace, reduces;
my conscience wouldn’t go along.

justice always comes, in the Master’s name;
