THE SPARK

Thousands of tiny genes fill every body cell,

Long before we’re born, there’s little to foretell

Our Body mould designed– a split second of conception,

Other things like intelligence, behaviour and perception;

Blue eyes or brown, skinny legs or curly mane,

Even some diseases, deliver certain blame

On heredity conditions, genes and chromosomes;

Cystic Fibrosis, Haemophilia or fragile X Syndrome;

Healthy, sick, rich or poor, our skin light or dark;

We are still individuals with our own special path

Where freewill is the spirit that dwells in every heart.

The journey of the soul to light the freewill spark.
