Spirit

Funky prose (poem?) about individuality and finding my own path in life

Spirit

A life's passion-
unattached, passionate,involvement
(a seeming oxymoron).
Or is it Zen?
FEAR-
The ferocious blockade to personal freedom.
ACCEPTANCE-
The destination on this map of evolution
(of what?).
SPIRIT-
Her dog's name.
At least there was Spirit.
LIBERATION-
Her home.

Gently, patiently, lovingly she nurtured her Spirit
and as promised her Spirit led her to
HER PATH-
(You don't see a path?  So it is mine!)

Surrender- Enlightenment
Trading the faded dream of a magical world
full of fascinating potential for reality.

I call out, "Spirit- come with me!"
Back down MY path
Enough of this sobering situation.

"Oh, good.  I left the door to inspiration ajar."
(Just inside now)
I'll suit up in my integrity.
Within these walls and windows are opportunity.
This is MY evolution!

No deadline.

I'm fortifying my fortress- for hope's eternal.
