Spirit Alert - Part 2

          Turns out my spirit never left me,
          It was just another lesson in life;
          They can come from any direction,
          Especially when there's worry or strife.

          My spirit's right where it belongs,
          Right between my heart and my soul;
          And sometimes it jumps back and forth,
          Deciding on which one to hold.

          That little imp wouldn't take off,
          Knowing how much spirit I need;
          But it did try to prove a point,
          One that I shall forever heed.

          When you find your spirit s missing,
          It's just a game of hide and seek;
          Look high and low and you will find,
          It's hiding because we are weak.

          Not weak in our hearts or our souls,
          Rather a weakness of the mind;
          Taking control of all our parts,
          Till help from God we choose to find.

          That's the lesson my spirit gave me,
          When all else fails have a talk with God;
          He's always there and will always listen,
          God make things easy we thought were hard.
