The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

The Human Spirit

Axis of my mind, body, thoughts, feelings,
Fears, emotions, passions, friendly dealings; 
My spirit incorporates each feature,
Of my being as an earthly creature...! 

Thinks, feels, motivates, manipulates,
It stands above all predetermined fates;
Life, resolve, awareness and thought pattern,
All preserved in its purview for certain...! 

Created in God's likeness and image,
Within undergoes awful scrimmage;  
The atman enlivening the body,
Are you in my lungs? Or in heart noddy...?

Whatever it might be; or however;
The times resurrect sometimes or never; 
Spirit lives on; will live; like sap in leaves; 
Joy fills the heart of anyone believes...!
