BEFORE YOUR SOUL



  Where are you before you are you,



   Billions of years, molecules exploding in time.



   Born to this world, millions of years before,



   A man, you don't speak in words, but a screech.



   Your first thoughts are of survival, food and water,



   Your mind and body are most unusual, not of today.



   Fire has not been learned, day and night, sun and rain,



   These are to you, a mystery, so much you will learn,



  Before your soul was created, a man you are related.

                                             Keith Garrett
