Notes About The Poem

I made up the word resuscitant

Life After Life

Life after life (with death in between)
Cannot compare to the Heavenly scene

As the singer sings of something personally
It can have the appeal to us all universally

In the skies it’s many Fourth of July’s 
For us eye candy, and we wait for our surprise

There are galleries of all the memories hanging in sight
There are lands to discover by fourth dimensional flight

There are things unseen, unheard of and unread
As we will get to know God for eternity’s breadth

Many colors, many smells, many sights, who can tell
The love of a family reunion, and many more loves as well

There’s life after this life lived on earth
There is life after life and birth after birth

So it is easy and plain to see, and it shows
We all go on to eternity (where you spend it God only knows)

(So to the recusants that think this is it (ain’t no more)
Prove it non-resuscitants (if that’s all you have) I implore)

P.S. So have a second sundae to your delight
       Because in Heaven there is no cellulite
