Listen to poem:

in my later years I ponder the afterlife and part of me yearns to meet up with loved ones gone too soon they are home and sometimes when I’m tired of it all I miss home I believe in my soul earth is the place celestial beings choose to visit when they are bored with being blissfully happy and need to put in perspective their good fortune warped as it may be it’s a game for them AP: Honorable Mention 2021 Posted on October 1, 2020

I like your take on the afterlife and 'boredom'. I've known the reality of my soul since I had an NDE whilst almost drowning in a Vermont 50 years ago; I've also come to believe that what we call 'ghosts' and 'guardian angels' are those who care about us 'visiting' this world, looking our for us.
