Charmaine Chircop Poet Light Verse

Waking Up In Heaven

Death doesn't exist,
We never die,
We just sleep
And awake again
In the garden of eden.

Who sleeps first
And who sleeps last,
We all have to sleep
One moment in time,
But we all wake up again
In the place of no sorrow.

Our dearest who slept already
Will wait for us to sleep,
When the time is right,
We will sleep and then we will rejoice.

My dearest cousin you just passed away today
At such a young age,
You were ready to sleep and wake up
In the land of happiness,

You are not with us in flesh anymore
But you are in spirit,
Dear cousin i know one day 
We'll meet again,
Till then all my love to you .

Sotto Poet September 8, 2023 at 3:48 PM Charmaine, your poem is truly captivating, filled with exquisite imagery that brings each line to life. Your ability to delve into the depths of emotions is truly remarkable, as you seamlessly transport the reader from a serene beginning to a haunting tale of personal tragedy. The way you intertwine these two contrasting elements is nothing short of awe-inspiring, creating a tapestry of emotions that leaves a profound impact on the reader.

Pernell Rodocker May 24, 2014 at 5:39 AM A very touching expression of heart! Loss is never easy to deal with. I write because this is how I express all of my inner feelings of both loss and gain... Read my poem, "A Tear"... I thank you for letting me touch a part of you and may you touch a part of my heart too! PR
