Sonnet For the Soul

What is a soul, but energy of universal mind; consciousness in the ether's. What is a spirit, but energy sentient; dwelling with the others? Human consciousness, an awakening to reality; the human being, in all of its frailties. Mind, body and soul, together, are a whole. Without the body, mind and soul; in control. Beyond Earths realm, a spirit’s at the helm; where souls abide on Heavens bright side. The soul’s eternal rest; the reward for a passed test. Where eternity sleeps; treasure, the soul reaps. Mind your entrapped soul; that the mortal, gains not, control.

My soul is the one I try to appease, please, and squeeze in hugs, warmth and kisses. She is the only one I can take with me to every plane, existence, and lifetime. I call her Trixie, and pretend she is my muse. Wait! That might be everybody; my mind, too. Hmmmm You have given us a great poem, a thinker's poem, M.L.
