" MY SOUL " MY PHOTO, ©

May be an image of rose

My soul, a ripe fruit resembles Ready to fall from the tree of life Onto the ground of eternity Ending thus my existence strife! © Demetrios Trifiatis 24 August 2022

I understood what you meant in your poem - I meant : I enjoy your "fruits" (wisdom and love)... and it would be sad to lose them... "falling down on the earth of eternity" ...no one lives forever here on earth ... but, it hurts to lose your dear friends - Have a wonderful day :) - thoughts // Anne-Lise :)

My dearest, Anne-Lise, when I say " My soul a ripe fruit resembles" is a Metaphor, therefore, it simply means, that taking into consideration my age, am ready to pass into eternity as ripe fruit is ready to fall onto the ground. The soul when ends her journey, her mission, is ripen and falls onto the ground of eternity where is judged according to what has done on earth. Thank you for your lovely visit! REMEMBER: The soul is not a fruit but a part of divinity that comes from divinity and returns to divinity! Blessings!

Dear Demetrios, indeed, one's soul does ripen on the tree of life until it fulfills its Earthly goals and lets go of the bough. Your poetic expression is rich and your photo is beautiful. Warmest wishes, my inspiring friend.. ~Susan

Dear, Demetrios Your words are precise and to the point. In reality, nothing lasts forever on Earth; we are more like guests or travelers who must depart when their stay is through. God's blessings on you

No one can say when our time comes ! Though we wish to cling on to our life here, the thought that an eternal life awaits us at the other end makes us less apprehensive of our final good bye. May God strengthen and bless each one of us. Stay blessed, sweet friend !
