Two best of friends met in a place where most animals go afterlife.
Ballyregan: "I run all my life... until I retired."
Scurlogue: "I've won many races, but I had one race where I ran back and not finish the race."
Ballyregan: "Why?"
Scurlogue: "Because I wanted you to win!"
the underworld rumbles and summons
beckoning in groveled whispers
with undertones of shady pretenses
haunted by gods and demons
who brazenly wave their book of souls
tormentors do the dirty work in afterlife
meanwhile here kings and rulers
wealth in pocket pauper in heart
build their towers to climb to heaven
every last of these towers of babylon
will one day come apart at the seams
they’ll disintegrate and fall to dust
greed and hate and malice
feed self-fulfilling prophecies
of wars designed to never end
man’s self-destruction on auto-pilot
will one day rise their corpses from fetid ashes
and lead their crusade into eternal damnation

If I see you in heaven,
will you still be eleven?
Or will you have grown into a man ~ dark, handsome, and tall?
And when we converse,
will you be able to expound on the universe?
Or will your thinking still be eleven years small?
Meet me there ...
Be it rain or shine,
Since I like both
Any weather is fine
Find me there ...
With those already met,
To mingle there ...
With ones I haven't yet
In a good place where
We can laugh and smile,
And talk to the ones
Not seen in awhile
I'll be going there
When my time comes,
I'll be waiting there
With my old chums
Promise me now ...
You will cry no tears,
And meet me there
In one hundred years.
Someday we will all meet again
After each of our sunsets.
Surely when the time comes by then
There will be no more regrets.
For only in the realms of Heaven
We will have no more frets.
Ways we lived our lives had to happen,
So no one ever truly forgets.
So rest assured we shall meet again
After the last of all of our sunsets.
For Grandpa Donald
(May 1946 to September 2021)

A poem I wrote in May 2021 for my grandfather who died September 11, 2021. It means someday my deceased loved ones and myself will be reunited in the afterlife. The "sunsets" referring to the endings of our lives.
The afterlife will be full of surprises
Nothing like I might expect it to be,
No pearly gates or streets of gold--
Things won’t mean anything to me.
Life is surrounded with the material--
Money, possessions, things, and such,
In the next dimension* I’ll be spiritual
Material things won’t mean so much.
I will not be limited by time or space
In fact, I can’t imagine how it will be,
But I know it will be a heavenly place
And that will be enough to satisfy me.

(I call the "afterlife" or "heaven"
"the next dimension.")
every day we scurry at our hurried pace
simply another runner in the human race
no time to reach out and make any real connection
to show those in our circle meaningful affection
one thing for sure each one of us cannot escape
one day we’ll watch our life on a celestial audiotape
we shouldn’t wait till we’re on a gurney
to think about sum total of our journey
reconsider terrestrial bickering and strife
over points that matter least in afterlife
today is not too late to make amends
to set scores straight and start new trends

In mausoleum, home of rest-
the afterlife on earth,
our souls will watch from heaven's nest-
the remnants from our birth.

Four Lines From My Poem- "Together, Bring Us"
Posted August 22, 2016
Love's always been the total joy of my life
Can't live without it, gonna take it to my afterlife
Find a sweetie up there
A stunner, my love to share
Maybe Marilyn will greet me and touch my device
I do not fear death
nor dread my last breath.
I'll leave this physical realm
to where I don't know.
But I'm set to go:
these thoughts tend to overwhelm.
Relinquishing life
for an afterlife,
curiosity numbs fear.
Though life's bonds sever,
Souls live forever:
faith tells me to persevere.
To find out that God
is not just a fraud,
would be all I could hope for.
For if heaven's true,
then God's love is too,
and therefore my soul shall soar.
If death's a long sleep,
there's no need to weep;
I'll blink out, forever free.
And never feel pain
or anguish again:
it seems a win-win to me.
High up in the heavens, sits a lovely peaceful place.
Your faith and good deeds will take you there, in the afterlife.
The city n the clouds, its name is Shambhala.
It is in our thoughts we hope to live on forever
How clever we seem to think this way of not knowing
Everyone of us has a different version of the story called eternity
This diversity is what makes life an ongoing rhapsody
That is the only way we can keep our sanity
If not, we will all fall into the fathomless abyss of lifelessness
Sweet heavenly bliss, come and give me a hug and a kiss
I need to know that life does not have a quietus
That we do continue in an afterlife
Some way, somehow
We will live on forever
Any injustices we commit on earth, like dark shadows, follow us in afterlife!

*Back just for today!
The greedy provisions made to last him a hundred lives but failed to make any for afterlife!

By investing in love dividends are assured even in afterlife!
