Empyreal

Born of the earth To shine beneath the sun Feel of the air On my skin now basking in the breeze Being a mortal Keeping my soul within To grow and drink of sweet waters Thus bringing infinite goodness. Years pass by And changes the grid Bringing in changes in mind and body To dwell upon its countenance Waking up in sweet aspirations Welcoming change My soul draws full breath Upon the sodden ground Making a wish so sublime In sadness and in happiness Did I ask for too much Or did the divine bless me so For oft in introspect I remain at the mercy of my feet Taking me to distant lands Which once I read in books The clouds above me hang low And the sky opens Giving way to a light That light did I perceive.
