Ever-Ascending

Keep climbing … Don't look down
    Higher and higher … God's town

You're on the rise … ever-ascending
    Surrounded by … angels never-ending

The air is light … cheerful and free
    A feeling of elation … cushions your ride

You gaze all around you … a joy to behold
    Faces of friends … renewed, no longer old 

A rainbow of love … washes over your mind
    Everyone here …  is so incredibly kind

A voice rings out … a voice sweeter than wine
    Welcome aboard, friend … aboard Eternity's airline

Wow Gershon, I love, love this poem - what a wonderful description of paradise, and what better than to meet your loved ones again on a one way ticket to eternity! Best wishes, Jennifer

You won't have to stand in line for a moment, my friend. When the time comes, you're going to have a VIP escort right to the very top! Peace and joy, Gershon
