I descend while blue sky darken As you ascend from dirt brown Taking with you on this upward climb The very essence of our existence .......................................I Struggle
I descend with a stroke of wisdom Knowing that the ink in this very able pen Can mark out fiction and imagine science as a beginning Understanding emptiness without conscious narratives Comprehension engraved by your being .................................................................I Strive I descend when the hours are gone Wishing minutes were malleable In time I take hold realizing the legacy Not on paper but within generations Let not the measure of your character be gone ..........................................................I Strain I descend respect towards your bones Asking for guidance as you lead on Rays of light inscribe your name As clocks wait this moment I reach for "Kindred" and remember .................................................I SEEK Ancestors' ©2006 Tamika LaShelle "Kissed with Soul"
