Soaring high..........

It does not have to be this way,
heard this many times before.
Listen to your heart, feel it in your soul,
set your spirit free to soar evermore.

Time has come to set aside,
the needs we seek through material things.
Allowing God to bestow enlightenment,
soaring high on angel wings.

Having it all, yet having none,
a happy life does not make.
Through much spiritual clarification,
a chance we have to reach and take.

The world is ours to reap and sow,
bring back the family, children, home.
Clear your head of mindless chatter,
staying close no more to roam.

All so privileged to walk this earth,
need bow their head, give thanks each day.
Without God's blessing granting life,
what chance would we to have our say.

Please look around you, see all there is,
for living is there for us to partake.
A smile, a laugh, handshake or pat,
flowers, rivers, mountains and a lake.

Around every turn, every minute of every day,
each breath we inhale, each blink of an eye.
Enraptured with heaven's revelry,
there for the taking, there for us to try.

It does not have to be this way,
heard this many times before.
Listen to your heart, feel it in your soul,
set your spirit free to soar evermore.
