My soul is not Sikh

One of the blogs i visit often is the one of Sat Purkh Kaur.
It is called "Greetings from the land of enchantement"
She seems a wonderful lady to me and a very honest woman. Her blog is so straight out of the heart.
Awhile ago she wrote a very special poem, it touched me very deep. So i want to share this with you (yes, i asked her permission). If you want to read the full entry:

My soul is not Sikh
no, my soul cannot
be confined
-
to one name
to many names
to any name
-
My soul is as wide
as a sea with no horizon
no shore
-
My soul is not Sikh
no, my soul
speaks a greater truth
-
and,
bows to all names
or no name
my own name
-
My soul is as endless
as the summer sky
a mile wide
-
No- My soul is not Sikh
