O Spirit within me
Spirit of the poetry that’s free.
Abide in me to write to the people everywhere
From my soul of what I truly came.
O Spirit in my soul
Let me see and know
What I must know and care about within
What poem to write again and again?
O Spirit abide within me
That living Spirit that’s free.
Help me to know and know
That poetry in my soul.
