The Cenotaphs Inscription

Listen to poem:
The Cenotaphs Inscription David J Walker And when you find your path To heaven Looking back is not an option Navigation flowing through The heart Reason set apart from the gross Realities of the earth as the domain Of the second son of God Yet here we trod And there we trod As angels of lassitude Hoping we are hovering Believing if we touch the vulgar ground We are grounded Bury my heart in the clouds The rest may be left beneath The inscription on the cenotaph Forgotten in the round

Oh, wow. A divine message, David. To see life as Heaven on earth, to repel evil and untoward action. I found your poem beautifully written. 'Navigation flowing' introduces us to your superb freeing sentiment..
