Wandering Soul Poem by MELVIN BANGGOLLAY

WANDERING SOUL
Melvin Banggollay


My soul is wandering in my fantasy
Going to places I have never been;
Canoing my boat to sail unwittingly
To places where I have never seen.

Yet in solitude I can see vividly
Memories my father shared to me;
Deep in my heart he will eternally
Linger in my soul till he'll take me.

His soul is wandering around today
For he often visit me in my dream
Telling me to love our dear family
As he cared us with all his cream.

I often sub when I remember his gone
That I can no longer embrace his charm
and hear him whisper his great wisdom
That guided me to sail to be a man.

Lord, I fervently pray for thy mercy
Take my father's soul in your glory
And keep him safe, warm and happy
For I will come to see him oneday.
