This Soul Eternal

This Soul Eternal
 



an infinite flight
my curious nature sees
possibilities

 
 
          caught
             inside this strange shell
                      I dwell, for a spell.

                            tribulations task me… most interesting
                            challenges aplenty (four and twenty as it were)

                                                        to run like the wind
                                                        to trip and fall… defeated
                                                                                   to rise
                                                                                       triumphant

                     again to fall
                                       to rise
                                                   to rise
                                not to rise
                      to wait
         to fear

ah… growth
               
                   I see
                               
                           free
 
captured a moment
grateful flight- more glorious
this soul eternal
