One Day

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLCHXfkGOIw

One day we'll all go to the other side of the world 
where the moon is launched near the stars unfurled  
We will assemble in the hubble of the milky way 
and find no trace of earthly bodies in this mainstay; 

We will hover inside the palindrome of heaven's loft 
restructure like dancing orbs of light, bouncing off 
the walls of the sky, born to never be born or die; 

One day we will escape this crusty earth of touch 
and leave for a place where we don't need a thing 
No surgical headlights to see the cavity of man 
no scalpel to fix a little girl named, Marianne 

We will find our loved ones smiling on the other side 
they will be the hinges on the door that leads inside
Exhilarated and free we will shine softly in the night. 
as if we were the only light aglow, far and out of site .

The joy that awaits us in the afterlife is worthy of celebration! Just think -- no disease, hearts filled with light and love. Wish those who fear death could see things from your perspective, Vie. Beautiful poem! Hugs, Carolyn

Dear Carolyn , I have been holding on to this perspective for quite some time now. It helped through the loss of my parents, knowing that they were still there watching over me, thank you for dropping in

Dear Mystic, only your gifted pen could express the expectation of Heaven in such a beautiful way. A glorious penning inspiring soulful comfort and inner peace. Warmest wishes and hugs, my dear friend.. ~Susan

Dear Susan, if only everyone could find the strength to believe at their death bed that life doesn't end there, there would be more souls relinquishing life on earth , thank you for reading,

The other side as you describe feels heavenly and peaceful. The best part is we don't need any possessions. Words of enlightenment, Vienna.

I believe there is so much unexplored visions up there, I am certain it doesn't end here. Thank you for stopping by Vijay, :)

- That there is more between heaven and earth than we know or can explain ... many are sure that there is something ... what you describe sounds heavenly, Vie Rose :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
