Like the Stories Told

Never failing ever from 
my God's creation I become,

more spirit than the flesh's hold,
more God like like the stories told.

As God connects into soul
flesh begins to lose control,

daring matter thus to try
to recapture us in flesh's lie.

On and on in rounds we whirl,
it fools us all, both boy and girl

until God does refresh the spirit 
pulling soul's truth in close by, near it.

The truth is that the flesh is lies,
believing matter creates demise.

The realness of God sits inside spirit;
ask God to pull you in close by, near it.

In that prayer, spirit's thrive.
Soul connection becomes alive!

Again, freeing us from flesh's hold,
again, God like like the stories told. 

This one's okay....
