Spirit

You pass me
as I fly by.

Closer to the mist 
in the sky.

I'm getting closer
to that place.

Where I'll meet you
in the sky.

Can you tell me
where does the spirit go
when you die?

I want to know
so I can meet you there
when I die.

oh gosh, how did I not see this? I really like how it reads. It reminds me of the Spirit in the Sky song I loved so much in my teens. WEll, You are my last read of the night, Debbie. Just so much to do!!! Goodnight now.

Debbie, this is beautiful and somehow fitting considering the poem you visited today , God's love for a little girl, I was honestly shocked when that poem got an NA in the first contest placed in but happy it placed in another contest, thanks for visiting

Perhaps we do have spirits. Wouldn't that be nice? That you want to meet after death is a cute idea. You are out there now, and I appreciate being able to approach you this way. Your words will be here for a long time. The pleasant thought I have for you is here right now. Thank-you so much! You have started my day with a smile. That is a gift.
