Choice

Choice

Is this small life I lead enough

for this consciousness?

Or am I responsible

for the link to the Higher Self

in the midst of making breakfast

and keeping a roof overhead.

Was this small life

soul-chosen,

beyond the awareness

of my conscious mind,

tending to the day-to-day?

Am I bidden to look beyond,

and anything deeming me small,

must be discarded

no matter the pleasure?

How much say,

how much choice,

do I have

as I contemplate life

while my Higher Self

whispers my soul name.
