Seat of My Soul

In the seat of my soul

There are jellyfish in a rainbow creek

In the seat of my soul sits a little girl

Whose eyes are still full of stars

Who never knew life was hard

Where anything was possible

Knights in shining armor

Fairies on unicorns

Damsels in distress

All can exist

In the seat of my soul

Where magic is real

There was a heart

Never a hole

Wisdom came with age

Not pain

Not tears

Not fear

In the seat of my soul

I hold all the rainbows

Know where the flowers grow

Dance down the path of my mind

Through the dark labyrinth

Hoping to again find

The seat of my soul (C) mjr

exemplary poem, Michelle. Very well done in this introspective write. You have managed to put in words what we all know is there in the beginning. It is still there as it was created to be..just hidden and buried. You have done well to exhume and explain this JOY that is in us. This Explosion of Joy that created us and is in us as His Image and Likeness. You got me going here Michelle with this fine poem of yours. Thank you for sharing it. -Robert
