For Those Who Follow After

For Those Who Follow After

I am life set free once more,

dancing on the edges of the universe; generating stories not yet imagined, by lives not yet lived.

I am the Heart of all that is Human, the Soul of all that is Divine.

I am the Song of the Wild, the Voice of the Old and the Hidden.

I am the best of all that was, the hope of all that will be.

I am the sound of lives unfolding at the border, of possibilities and unformed yearnings.

Take my hand, Soul of Fire, Soul of Truth, Soul of Wisdom, that together we may shape a better journey for those who follow after.
