For the Spirit here in form

[cindy paulos]

As the soft pink veil of morning

Slips across the waiting day

A breath of life comes calling

With a prayer for the human race

 

A morning robe is offered

To hide the secrets you hold

For the world would not be ready

To see the truth you might unfold.

 

What lies behind this gossamer veil

That hides the heart of who you are

How can you really cover up the truth

that the world demands of all its stars.

 

If this Master who whispers to your heart

Were to let you worship his soul

Could you love any others who follow

once have met the one who is in control

 

And the world is spinning faster now

 than the hourglass that kept the time once knew

and the little clues that were given once

are not enough for you.

 

And the emptiness that came

When the sands of time were through

Are now all filled with the stories and glamour

of the form you held but could not hold you

 

And with the very turning of time

And the preciousness of this space

You reach for the cloak that hides you

To prepare for Journey that you must now take

 

And in the breath between the heartbeat

Of the world and what we see

There is so much more that waits for us Beyond the form

Holding the soul is the spirit that sets us free
