A Gift of Righteous Goodness
The dawn of enlightenment rises slowly
as perceptions of the universe spiral around my soul
to send it on a never-ending journey
of one thought to another
as it struggles with the events of its time
Where decisions are chosen
that allow it to be woven like a thread
through and into the fabric of timeless memories
fraught with a passion to be felt over and over
from renewed arguments from my soul's ancient deeds
paid for by its growing understanding
found in a dim-lit realm of shade
where the conscience of my soul rests in peace
to give advice in a silent domain of wise intent
Where my soul will be taught of more peaceful tomorrows
when it leaves the darkness and goes into the light
with an offer from the eternal beyond
as a gift for its righteous goodness
