Upon My Soul

On ground of sacred Earth



The ringing of bells



Can be heard



Calling us to remember



A truth veiled lightly



In a blanket of forgetfulness



I’ll find me there



Where angel’s songs 



Upon my ears



Do greet the morning sun



And in the cracks



My worthiness



I left unkempt



In a long forgotten place



Sullen



The road more frequently traveled



When joy forgot her face



The child inside



A voice so long unheard



Safely tucked into the womb



Of love’s sweet arms



Woven of all that glitters
