How grown- up can disconnect children from their spirituality
SPIRITUALLY INTERRUPTED. I CAME TO EARTH WITH EVERYTHING IN TACT. I was happy curious and with rapid anxiety. couldn't wait to bring the good news from the place where I had just come from, To my new home here on earth. It was just an overwhelming understanding. that I had,Wanted badly to share the joy as I arrived I studied my mothers face. She was beautiful ! I saw no father. As I knew what a mirror was immediately. The science of images and reflections innate. many secrets held in my D.N.A.. and I was well pleased. Delight and light surrounded me then. Everything was good. Somehow my senses were acute; Bees-Butterflies,dandelions. praying mantis even earthworms- were my playmates. Mud pies and the smell of dirt. Everything was intact when I came to earth. Seemed like a lovely place. Riding my tricycle- was quite like the freedom I had known in my other home. Then hooverd a cloud over me. a dreary cloud, Tears were streaming I heard mommy crying. She was only a child I tried to make her smile again. I wanted to know but, she cried even more. I tasted anguish for the first time that day. I was spiritually interrupted afraid, insecure, and confused confounded by the blanks and the sudden disconnection, I built up a wall; The wall protected me from the cacophony of loud ,big people shouting. I retreated into my safe world. Grown-ups they annoyed me All of them ( The big People ) They were different, I vowed to never forget my original self. I vowed that I would always hold on to my Spiritual soul. Years passed and I gathered more of their distorted truth's I wanted to enjoy the body I was placed in. The body I had before the distractions of curves.. Before the mind noise. Before the blood that caused me distress I could hardly hear my inner-voice. I prayed to my inner God. Too much to know- Too much too soon. My innocence melted like a snowball in a furnace. The lust of the big people no longer allowed me the freedom childhood. Now jaded with the burden of womanhood and my childhood was arrested.. My spirit was abruptly interrupted.

I am so happy to be the first to comment my dearest spiritual friend! You see, we have always to keep in mind that the lips of wisdom should always speak to the ears of understanding otherwise the message is lost and we find ourselves alone in the sense of this world. I have written a geat number of poems to that beautiful spirit of yours and you may search some as CREATION, REINCARNATION, DEATH MY LIBERATOR and many more! Your poem is an exceptional one but few can understand! BRAVO!
