Ambassador

Reborn here now without baggage,
forgiven, justified, secure.
Hoping for heaven's advantage,
meanwhile the earth remains my home.

It is my hub, my headquarters,
reborn here now without baggage.
An envoy sans fear or disgrace -
new peace, new power, new passage.

One could call this rebirth a bridge
to time without end; but in fact, 
reborn here now without baggage,
I've just altered my direction.

No longer destined for Hades,
redeemed, with God's help I manage
as an ambassador for Him -
reborn here now without baggage.

This starts out with optimism "Reborn here now without baggage, forgiven, justified, secure." and ends on the same fabulous note.

Thanks for the read, and optimism is one of my signature viewpoints for poetry. Not much of a dark writer. Have a great day, I appreciate your encouragment.
