Soul

stardust that formed the earth

elements recycled many times

into me they formed

flesh, bacteria, a colony of one

yet in and through everything in ages past

part of everything now


I breathe plant exhaust

they breathe mine


elemental as I am, 

flesh

     and bone 

              and blood


My spirit soars

for it of the skies

boundless and eternal
