Poem
We wait around to grow our wings and find our paradise above, at last fulfilled and wanting nought, eternity in peace and love. I’m sorry to disturb this thought and tell you of the place I’ve seen, it is the place that you have sought but not quite like the one you dream. I travel often to this place, a land where dreams are truly real, where friends we’ve know can touch our soul and help to heal the loss we feel. A place where love and joy can fill the essence of your spirit’s core and lift you to a higher place than you have ever felt before. Yes, I have travelled many lands that stretch beyond our earthly grave alas, they are not all the same, not all are washed by comfort’s wave. There is no separate Heaven or Hell just many mansions filled with souls, where many levels all reside and all play very different roles. I’ve mentioned where it’s nice to be but now I feel that you must know there’s places you’d not like to be, but where a lot of lost souls go. There’s evil that is living thought that permutates throughout your mind and helpless souls that scream and cry with no release for them to find. There’s devils, demons, things pervert that never could a body wear, but rape the minds of all they touch with fear and hatred and despair. I’ve shared the warmth of heavenly love, I’ve fought with demons to survive, I’ve helped show souls who’ve lost the way a pathway to the other side. What is the purpose of this place, the land most seek to find their God, living life to reach the end with just rewards for where you trod? At least at levels near to man, where individual thoughts prevail, I’ve found that most still queue in line to try to cross back through the veil. For souls scream out to live a life where flesh allows the mind to feel both wind and rain and pain and fun where they can once again be real. There’s other levels that I’ve found where souls all mingle intertwined when they have reached up to a place where all can share a common mind. To share in paradise above you may traverse through many lives and realise when you are dead that you are bored with what survives. Especially if the heaven you sought is not your final resting place and you then have to queue in line to join again the human race. So live each moment of your time and make it where you wish to be, for nobody can be quite sure where they will spend eternity. Ivor G Davies
