Soul Needs

SOUL    NEEDS

My 
spirit 
only moves
in response to
another’s need or anguish deeply felt.

I hope  when my time of spirit is nigh
my anguished need
will be sensed,
and God
moved

Thanks. I’m so happy to share my ‘sad’ poem and to have made it (barely) into the top ten. Your ‘SOUL NEEDS‘ deserved a win as well. ~James MeanderthalMan
