The Undead

Ghost are spirits that walk the earth After being dead I wonder if spirits go to heaven Before being dead While ghost walk the earth Pretending to be alive Do spirits visit heaven With their wonderful surprise Can loved ones know their relatives Are coming Though like ghost they arrive Not yet whole and barely visible To even heavenly eyes There must be a few earth angels As few as there are ghost But with their apperance in the Heavenly realm They are guaranteed a heavenly birth While ghost practice horror And some with evil demise Earth angels practice happiness To satisfy heavenly lives How blessed are the heavenly Who's hopes are not denied And the proof of heavens promise Before the loved one dies What is loose on earth Is loose in heaven Even spirits of the undead I don't really know for fact But by math to this I am lead Just a passing thought I was given Before going to bed Have you ever dreamed of Being in heaven Before you were even dead?

When I was sick..Is a poem by Robert Louis Stevenson..I had to look it up for I did not know the author at the time I quoted the lines and I did make some mistakes within the quote..I should have said an indirect quote..I am sick and right then I was feeling so poorly that I did not bother..Thanks for stopping by..Sara

Interesting ending question..The Bible says that there is a gulf fixed between Heaven and Earth and Heaven and Hell so that one can't pass from one to the other..The story of Lazarus and the rich man in the Bible..Sara

lots of reflective thoughts on those departed spirits. I often wonder myself why some ghosts remain behind in the earthly realm. It's explained by some that they had a traumatic death and are unable to move on. Pretty sad!!
