Outgrowing Life
Sometimes the spirit outgrows the body
Like a hermit crab outgrowing it’s shell
The body becomes
too tight,
too floppy,
too frail,
too weak,
too brittle,
too fragile,
too sick,
too short on time
in this temporal embodied life
to stay together anymore
Sometimes the spirit outgrows the body
Like steam in teapot the expansion of
the spirit must release
The spirit becomes
Too radiant
Too expansive
Too joyful
Too wondrous
Too ethereal
Too inspired
Too expressive
Too transcendent
too short on time
in this temporal embodied life
to stay together anymore
And death must come
The expansion of soul must release from
the earth body and rejoin
the ultimate body of eternal oneness
In Outgrowing this Life
we must change houses,
yet never our address of LOVE
