Wayfarer

I am here now in space and time As life endows my simple rhymes. Am I a soul, a wayfarer Seeking the whole? Still no wiser! I sense stirrings... faint melodies That seek clearing if I but see. I look within my intentions To thoughts unseen... prior commotions. I am a man — true flesh and blood; I probe, I scan as questions flood. I wander here... earth-bound I find; To make things clear, I search my mind. I linger here to catch life’s scent; I look for cheer ere voice is spent. With certainty, my eyes explore This sanity — Where is the door? Creature of light, am I a soul? — Born to insight, by grace made whole? A rainbow sky can touch my heart As thoughts apply my curious start! Thoughts become things all in due time As senses fling some portent chime. Am I a soul born of true light? Unique and whole... with precious sight? Joy fills my heart as love finds me Playing my part — roles yet to be?
