Children From Another World

***~~***
Only but voices, i can not see their faces.
They laugh and recite verses,
Reaching me slowly in this lonely oasis.
             ***~~***
I can hear the sound of the beak of their feathers,
Their cloudy whiteness, 
Living me in awesome wonders, mellowing me
Like servants to masters.
Oh! what caused this cloudy matters...?
             ***~~***
Again, i hear voices without the trace of faces
In the starry night,
Trying to see my joy, ignite,
To make sure am so elegant.
             ***~~***
I can hear them call my name,
Announcing the coming fame,
That can never be lame,
No denials by time....
Children from another world,
See them strolling around in the air,
One here... one there.. crystal 
Babies all around, i know they come from where 
My soul one day will go.

oh my goodness, Charles, you have just described a basic concept of my religion. we believe that all souls are spirits in heaven waiting to come down for "their turn on earth" but you descibed them as children whose voices can be heard in the sky and in the clouds. So lovely!!! sorry I can't comment much lately. Luv, Andrea

Hey, this is cool . It makes me think that maybe you believe as I do that our spirits are already in another place before we come to earth and then when we die,we return to tha that place! Love the last two lines of what you said here. LUv, Andrea

You convey the loneliness so well, Charles. I'm thinking the "voices" you hear come from the spirits of loved ones who have passed away. And, yes, you will be reunited with them again one day. A wonderful, moving write! Love, Carolyn
