Souls animate the flesh
Moving us through life
Experiencing the good and bad
Carrying memories like feathers
Floating through the world
Driving our emotions
Tiring the mind
Dragging us kicking and screaming
Promising forever on dormant wings
Waiting in anticipation
Holding out hope for winds of change
Basking in the sun of borrowed time
Remembering seasons gone by
Reaching for others
Lamenting it’s corporeal form
Dreaming of a future unseen
Aching to return home
Watching the clouds shift
Feeling the cool winds blow
Sniffing the air of freedom
Lifting it’s head toward the sky
Spreading it fingers wide
Releasing our bodies to fate
Forgetting the past with each stroke
Fading from view
