Mission Accomplished

English Sonnet

 A speck of dust had life breathed into it
 A willing volunteer a soul of love
 Conceived of lust, love, trust and light spirit
 Trip impossible without God above 

 Arrival endured treacherous journey
 Brilliant light at the end of the tunnel
 Caressing arms, warm milk, silk skin and free
 Adapting to life after the funnel

Boundless beauty was gladly encountered
Hardships too whittled the befuddled soul
Spit your heart out and purposely devoured
Changes you didn't seek a small black hole

When the mission was accomplished and ceased
Sweet Surrender your last breath was released
