The Restless Soul

Life and Death

So softly our skin
wraps around our soul
intertwining
into a mold of likeness.

Recognizable features
among these sultry spirits
ever so acceptable
in our kindness.

Mundane repetition
with not any recognition
slowly dying
forever timeless.

Unwrapping the soul
as the angels sing
a body gone
a spirit restless.

wow. that was a gem. beautiful word choice, imagery, on life, spirit and death. 'slowly dying forever timeless' the duality of it all, the brief dance between the finite body and the infinite soul.

"So softly our skin

I like the above words a lot. The good description create good thoughts and visions. Hard for a restless soul to know peace. Thank you for the excellent poetry.
