One goal one soul |

One goal one soul The wind that touched your face today And mine in gentle feel and play, Embraced us since our very birth, Forever with us on this earth. Our breath has touched and joined with those. In past and present since time arose. And you and I have touched before And will embrace forever more. So do not ever feel left out And do not ever harbor doubt, That you and I are tied as one And never will we be undone. We all encircle time and space, We live and die within this place. We are together in one goal, We are together as one soul. The breeze that kissed you on the face, Has held me in the same embrace. |

This is that poem I love with many interpretations, and I love all of them, WE are all bound together, the same breeze touches us all. This is one heck of a poem Liz |

I liked this one a lot, Seymour. Even though you didn't repeat the same lines in the first and last ones, the overall effect was that you did. I found the poem very gentle and sweet, and enjoyed your word choices. Thanks for sharing it. Mike |

*Vote* Do I need to add something? Yes I do, thank you for such a nice poem The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |
