Spirits of the Soul

                                     Spirits of the soul

                                            where will you turn to go

                                                when water turns to ice

                                                         in the heart?

                                      As the journey just begins

                                            wandering craggy mountain trails

                                                 and the core is entrapped

                                                         in the ice.

                                       Ice one cometh, ice one goeth

                                              lying quietly, lying deeply

                                                       discovered so quickly

                                                             lying sleeping

                                                                    so peacefully,

                                       But where go

                                                the spirits of the soul

                                                        when water turns to ice

                                                                  in the heart?
