riding ...the soul+train

Too good to be true ... so hard to explain

What would you rather believe...

Few may rise through the smoke and ashes of the battle royale

While standing resolute …side+steping the half+truths

No longer will we be fooled …by the evil ones lies

By trials and troubled times we are schooled

Surpassing our youthful ways all things in time

…the lesson received

In  glistening visions we become more aligned

Crossing the muddy waters of doubt, as we suffer through it

Those who survive, live …to be redeemed with love

Dipped in cleansing baptismal pools …gradually becoming more devout

As the gem is revealed …our noblest thoughts entertained

In gratitude we sing …as our prayers are answered

As we join all+souls on the journey to redemption

Our souls united  …for just+cause

Of pure thoughts …surreal

We enter the fold…

Says the conductor,

“All aboard”

Riding …on the soul+train
