Soaring Spirit

Soaring Spirit


A mirror of liquid gold heralds the dawn
Ripples of pink and gold, a beauty unworn,
Reflections, silhouettes, a myriad of imagery
Morning shadows dance, moving swiftly,

Sunlight glints forth in a silent caress
As I sit down and close my eyes to rest,
I breathe in time to the pulse of life
My spirit’s released on a journey of true sight,

Society’s shackles eventually break free
To allow Mother Nature to envelop me,
The hustle and bustle of city life is gone
No worries, no cares, only the land’s ancient song,

Kakadu’s living heart awakens my soul
To sail upon heaven’s breath is my spirit’s goal,
My flight is unknown as I follow the wind
In harmony with creation, I hear my heart sing,

Beyond majestic falls and their thundering sound
I soar ever higher where new worlds are to be found,
On cosmic wings I continue to travel
As the universal mysteries slowly unravel,

The Milky Way gathers me in a friendly embrace
Swallowing my fears without any trace,
Floating among the stars, I’m truly not alone
As Earth’s primordial heart calls me home,

Returning to my body, my goal is finally won
As I open my eyes to the glorious rising sun,
Dewy grass stalks dance in rhythm to the breeze
Glittering necklaces of diamonds for all to see,

Free of humanity’s blinding cloak of disguise
My mind is now peaceful, my flesh revitalized,
For a moment I was one with the universal flow
Now I’m ready to return to the city life I know.
