Unless

Somewhere
in the art of living
unseen souls shape our lives 
unless our minds say otherwise 
but with a gentled focus 
the soul ultimately shows a safer way
unless our hearts are shattered and rent 
but with each gentled mend of frayed edges 
our souls ultimately settle all things in place again 
unless our bodies are broken and fallen 
but when steadied and guided, our souls give us rest.

In the art of living
money is no object 
for the soul lives inside us 
ever an ember ready to flicker and flame into life 
unless our hearts, our minds and our bodies 
are abandoned to the whims of worldly things 

“Don’t Gain The World & Lose Your Soul, 
Wisdom Is Better Than Silver Or Gold.”
~ Bob Marley
