My Belief

My time upon this mortal plane is brief
for death is a consequence of living.
When the time's right, I'll step into the light
for I've known happiness, and I've known grief;
more importantly, I've loved and was loved.
I've watched nations fuel wars in disbelief;
as kids go hungry all over the world.
I don't fear death, it offers some relief,
guiding souls to a place more forgiving.
I'll step into the light when the time's right
and rise to heaven; that is my belief.

Unseeking Seeker Date: 7/11/2024 9:59:00 PM I’d say not later in the afterlife but here & now, we can see God’s luminous sphere of love & light in the cave of our purified quiescent heart.
