They said that of course the soul could not be seen
but mine was translucent white
exuding a gentle light
nestled there deep within my being
Every second week I took stock
of edges darkened by childish venial fault
and with whispered sins in a dark wood box
I made it clean.
Terrific poem yes I remember the fortnightly trip to cleanse my soul of childhood sin well done beautifully written

With whispered sins in a dark wood box....Thanks for sharing with us...
A kind of confessional box I believe, (could it now be pandora's box?) A really good piece of work.
