In the Whispers of My Soul

In the whispers of my soul Stands the urge to seek the truth of myself In this body of time, and rust, stand the feet, of many rhythms Hear the tap tap tap In my veins runs the blood from distances past I feel the pull of questing and it gets stronger and stronger My mind flutters like the butterfly that has hatched from its chrysalis Watch the flutter flutter flutter As the wrinkles upon this face, the smile which folds my lips, crumble. I take my grace of getting older and try to smile each day Can you hear the pounding of my heart, as it keeps this vessel working? Feel the beat beat beat Life Life Life so strange the feeling that creeps into my soul That whisper hear it, feel it, it calls, it calls, it calls.
