Will You Meet Me?

If only it were a place that I could get to…
This place sacred and safe, free of scorn and hate
Distant is the sound of suffering
Galaxies of energy bursting like balloons
Beyond Saturn’s colorful rings 
Darkness is nonexistent and sadness never enters
Astral phenomena majestically empowering all of those who enter
Do I dare to name this place? 
Shall I not speak of it as it may not exist?
This place where everyone is the same
Souls are free and spirits abound
If I were to find my way there
Would you find me?
Will you wait for me as God waits for his children?
Patiently?
This place of light though the sun need not shine
If I find my way there will you meet me?

Hi Lena, all of your loved ones will be waiting for you when it is your turn to cross through time and space. So that you may become one with each other.Because there is a special place waiting for you, and each and every one of us when it is our time to cross.

Bravo darling! I loved Saturn's colorful rings and how that blended so well at that stanza...Life is what it is...and low and behold I think that the place you spoke of....is right here...the soupie...But sadness is sadness, I don't know how life would be without loss and sadness to make us the strong characters we are....I understand your strong point though! Know your place does exist. I LOVED THIS WRITE...just genuine and full of imagery! Thanks for your welcomed comments too btw~Jane:)

Your faith is an inspiration, Lolita. This is a very compelling poem, filled with provocative images that lure the reader to the "unnamed" place. Simply heavenly!
