The soul is made up of many things
The songs of days past
The pictures of days ahead
Of moments here and now
My soul is made of body and spirit
Each has a part to play
And each has a mind of their own
But carefully trained they become artwork
My soul is made of sunshine
And like Shakespeare of old
My Soul is in the sky
And it flies high
It runs with the wind
As fast as light
My dreams fly high like birds in flight
Everything I wish is at my fingertips
My soul is made of iron
Rock hard and steady in the wind
My soul is in the earth
Knowing what I know not letting what I don’t pull me down
Life throws things at us
Hurtful things
Negative things
Yet my soul is strong and won’t let me down
My soul is made of current
Going through life with ease
My soul is in the water
And it bends to fit with all of life
While it is strong it is easily taught
And flowing through not like a leaf on a wave
But like the wave reaching for shore
It is not the force being moved upon instead it is the force
My soul is made of pages
Bleeding out with every word
My soul is in the bindings
Letting go and flying free
All the elements pull it together
All of life pulls it free
My soul knows where it’s going
And I let it be
