Rama Balasubramanian Poet Rhyme

All About Ghosts

When father died we thought he has reached heaven in sky
But my sister saw him, finger sized he could fly
He talked to me, I could hear him clearly
No one else heard him, but sister saw him clearly

My sister after birth of first child, 
Saw mother come and bless the child
My mother died long back
But to see grandchild came back

Came from house of dead my aunt who passed away
And told me how her money was to be given away
Since her death my mother-in-law has been helping us
Whenever we pray, resolving problems for us

When a person dies, soul gets new body
Goes to another astral plane with that body
After sometime they are reborn on earth
They only live as ghosts till their rebirth

Ghosts are none other than soul
A body can have only one soul
Ghost entering a living body is not possible
Have no fear, ghosts harming humans is impossible

Jennifer Proxenos February 15, 2021 at 10:47 AM Krish, my father died 25 years ago and yet it is like yesterday - he suffered the last 3 months of his life he had bronchial cancer, he has come to me in very difficult times in my life. My husband often smells his tobacco (he was a pipe smoker). It is his soul I know - thank-you for sharing Rama. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer. Krish Radhakrishna February 15, 2021 at 11:48 AM Jennifer only those who have had such an experience, like some of us, believe it to be true. My father was with me during most difficult times opening doors that looked impossible! I have had visions of events well before they happened as a warning! yes.i know it to be true.

Krish Radhakrishna February 14, 2021 at 11:40 PM I believe in the spirit and have experienced strange happenings that can only be interpreted as ghosts. I also believe once departed souls of our close relatives do come to bless us. I have had that with my father, now with my mother. Excellent write. Wish you luck in the contest! Rama Balasubramanian February 15, 2021 at 6:10 AM Thanks Krish. You know what during last rites, they are around and come on every amavasya and shraddha days. I can feel that clearly. And they get powers which they use to help their families. Looking forward to reading your poem on same topic. Take care Rama

Beryl Edmonds February 14, 2021 at 9:02 AM A wonderful write Rama, I’ve seen my parents many times since they passed, I really believe they come to see that all’s well on earth for their children to whom they gave birth... Belle Rama Balasubramanian February 15, 2021 at 6:06 AM I many times get a feeling that those who are dead are near in the house although I cannot see them. Wouldn't want to see them, don't know why but I am scared of dead people. Take care Rama

Victor Buhagiar February 14, 2021 at 7:55 AM Your ending is perfect. I personally don't believe in ghosts. But many claim to have seen them. Oh well !!~~ Rama Balasubramanian February 15, 2021 at 3:07 AM Thanks I believe in the ending and as far as seeing ghost is concerned, what I wrote is true. Have a wonderful day ahead. Take care Rama
