 THE SPIRIT THAT IS ME!  

My last journey  I believe that everything (even earth & galaxies) is a living thing. From the earth beneath our feet to the skies above, the sun, the air we breath, the water we drink; plants, trees, animals even the stars have a birth, a life and death. 

Albeit different methods but all molecular at the beginning and end - is there no end?.  

Everything has a life cycle from food, to air, and internally the body needs food & water to keep everything working - to LIVE to grow and finally to leave the physical body to — return to the earth.    Each 'life form' has its own 'spirit' - the sense that says its ME, and can only be me! After death that spirit will dissipate into the central "Energy source" - "the light" the central "machine" that runs it all and be regenerated.  

So my picture is a depiction of that life cycle….my life, the other soles I have associated with the closeness of the plants and animals ALL eventually going into the LIGHT   

THE SPIRIT THAT IS ME!  

by Anything but a poet - Podi Lawrence   

From microscopic beginnings   

Grown into a miraculous intricate thinking machine,  

There is Inside my body something unseen.  

It's ME! it can't be anyone else -   t'is my own SPIRIT clear  

But when my body finally gives in, as it must  like leaves on the trees it will go back to dust  -   

or so I hear.  

BUT the "I", that is "ME" my life spirit,  

will re-join the Energy Source   AND, JUST  MAYBE, in due course Come back again?…….
