Holy Soul

To ride train of thought
And arrive enlightened 
To create a good heart
With open mind unfrightened 

To have a blessing 
To give God time
To lead confessing
Imperfections of mind

To grow old and remain 
Meek as a little child 
To not seek to gain 
But rather give despite denial 

To be of the light
Despite darkness like death
To fight the good fight
Times denying one’s self

You've got it, Karen. Seriously. This is what life's about, (methinks): retaining innocence, sense of justice, and imagination. The child in us must live on, spreading its unfiltered light, which is a direct gift from God. Bravo, Gershon
