Having Ensouled This Form

Having ensouled this form,
to feel by touch each pulse
with tenderness and love,
let’s pray to God that His
grace in-pours from above.

Having ensouled this form,
for a limited time,
waste not this gift of life
in pursuit of desire,
that leads to pain and strife.

Having ensouled this form,
with memory erased,
live not in past tenses
but vibrant here and now,
forgive all offences.

Having ensouled this form,
let’s find out who we are,
for the world is but smoke.
God dwells within our heart;
it’s high time we awoke.
