Poetry Friday: "For us, the spirit is always calling"


For us, the spirit is always calling:
“Lift up your eyes to higher ground
bathe in the light that is found
at the first break of morning
before the clash of sound.”

For us, the spirit is always calling:
“Forget yesterday’s sorrow clawing
at your back, the bliss it has drowned,
burying your joy under a dusty mound.
For us, the spirit is always calling.
