The soul in flight

The soul in flight

registers the delight of air

breathing underneath its wings

which open wide to embrace the surge

singing the praises of the Goddess

Here amongst the trees

we find a protective canopy

that offers us shelter

as desperate for freedom

our souls relax after revelling in

the heady magic of imaginative flight

taking our souls home

closer and closer to the light

There are traces that only surrender themselves

when we submit to the elevation

for there is a restrictive force

that wishes to pin us forever

to temporal things

But there is a part of our soul

that only feels most truly itself

when given wings

and freedom to fly

imaginings to dream on

vast panoramas

and fathomless deep

inner soul scapes

to journey within
