Kindred Spirits

For those who dare to soar

Somewhere there is a precipice
Overlooking Shangri-La
That beckons those with urgent needs
To reach for so much more;
Where spirits soar much higher
Than just our beck and call
They loosen our inhibitions
That catch us lest we fall.

Head over heels
And upside-down imaginations run
Daring us to find our goals
Our place out in the sun.

We cannot resist our chance to try
When resolve has found its place
We’ll take that eager leap of faith
Knowing
This moment
May never come again.

Across the veil of promises
Where instincts dash and blur
Our hearts and souls defy the odds
That sting and stun and stir.

There high above the valley
Where only eagles soar
We glimpse beyond horizons
All this and so much more.

It is not written that we must fail
Of this we can be certain
We know each other much too well
We’ll share our mutual burden.

A climatic trip that has no end
A joy from high above
We live to find our destiny
Released within our love.
