Soul Searching
Tiny young me, frail and thin,
Still waiting for my own life to begin:
I reached out to the sky,
To scream and shout,
With so much passion
That my soul slipped out.
And with much surprise,
It soared toward the stars;
It took paths first christened
Both by Venus and Mars.
It saw many things
That great sages had seen:
Things which my eyes, still on Earth,
Hadn't gleaned.
And after pleasant travail,
My soul wandered back:
Along the same trail,
Along the same track.
It came back to Earth,
Refreshed and reprieved.
And entered my body,
From whence it took leave.
So with a little more wisdom, and new knowledge stored,
I patiently wait for my own life once more.
