Astral Travel

Zephyr takes my soul east She goes without comment Understanding her ultimate destination Knowing it was predetermined Before this incarnation My body lifts and lowers in melodic rhythm We are unconcerned, it is mere flesh. She slumbers peacefully on the bed. Nightly REM activity continuing As active as in my babyhood One day Zephyr will bring my soul home I will feel beloved and respected Not a final journey for my spirit self Rather a resting place in between incarnations My flesh self gasps loudly; I was too harsh on reentry

Wow! This is a really good poem, Caren. I have longed to take such a trip, but I can't say I have been so honored. I know of other people who do, however. I have a good friend whose husband did it regularly. She begged him to take her with him, but he could not. He could only share what he experienced.

My father was an astral traveler, as I am. We both travel around while our body slumbers on a regular basis.

Thank you James. I wonder if you too are an astral traveler then?
