Life after death
Death strikes with its wicked grin,
Deep grief and sorrow it brings,
Flights to heaven then begin,
When our souls fly without wings,
Each saint bears a halo ring,
They reign there as queens and kings,
With Angels near a calm spring.

I'm often asked if there is life after death
I'm often asked if there is life after death,
I say yes, there certainly is, like a secret hidden in the woods,
Death after life and life before death, an endless cycle,
Everything continues without stopping, a river of time that cannot be dammed,
We live forever and die forever, spirals of existence.
As for heaven and hell, they are

Life After Death
"House of lies, pride and bone,
The gauzy instability in my augmentation, I feel the hostility commence deep into my lanes. I prom in the masquerade of the mirror and cannot identify myself as an entirety. The melody doesn’t assemble my body to sway, my hands envelope the playlist and the pursuit button, and my

life after death
Ken's had a car accident
his life hangs in the balance
there’s no brain activity
his life support was switched off
declared clinically dead
Dee cradled him tenderly
as he took his final breath
their wedding vows remembered
donor card activated
vital organs are removed
saving the lives of others
even in death he lives on
Dee walks behind Ken’s coffin
her long ebony tresses
cover her face like

Life after death
Life after death
Through life we walk through fleeting years,
High hopes, sweet dreams and silent fears,
But when we leave this mortal ground,
What lies beyond, what truth is found?
They say a light awaits us there,
An abode of peace, a world so fair,
Our souls find rest, and hearts go free,
In life after death, what will we see?
Beyond the

Life after death
In the midst of darkness, we fear the unknown What lies beyond this life we've known But do not fret, do not despair For there is hope in the afterlife we share Though we must leave this earthly plane Our soul will continue on, no longer restrained In a world full of light and love

Cod bless ye dead folks

Those too that have cause to cry
After all sundry sadness
They've seen to go by.

MORE THAN HOPE
“MORE THAN HOPE”(written by: Michelle Lynn LeBlanc 11/01/2023)
Dedicated to my son, Jayden Donald LeBlanc
.
.
You have given me More Than Hope
When hope was all I had
The past 2 months have been such a journey
Beyond my left brain, I might add!
It started the day of your 1 Year Anniversary
Although I didn't notice it at the time
Then from

Houdini Wanted Proof of Life After Death
Houdini wanted proof of life after death
He would do anything to get it
He tried a variety of things
Nothing worked, to his disgust
He offered big fortunes
But alas, it did not happen for him.
On this earth, in this flesh body.
But then he reached heaven.
Or was it? He was surrounded by spirit.
They were giggling and whispering.
He was tied

Life After Death
All live in the past and present
None of us knows the future
Until Death.
Our energy never dies
The only place for it to go is:
The Future.
That is life after death

Swords
Psalm 119:28 – "My soul is weary with sorrow; strengthen me according to your word." King David in the Bible.
Swords
Grief is the silent, ripping sword,
the razor slashing inward;
the days, the weeks, the years go by
and time is an enigma.
Some say normal life returns
but they have never lived this;
there is no normal after death,
there never is

Spiritually Hope That There Is Life After Death
Not to die is also not to live...
greater sadness is crying inside
in place of releasing tears out...
have only pristine smiles
that today correspond to nostalgia...
Smile thorns and cry flowers...
live with a sad soul
and smile anguish...
Feeling that joy is crying around...
That's why I reaffirm that dying,
is born-again... that is spiritual
comfort...
Meanwhile, I write poetry
that reveals understanding...

Life After Death
It is not a matter
Of liking or not liking death,
It is a matter of
Believing in that very Truth.
It is not a matter of fearing
Or embracing it,
It is a matter of
Trusting the Holy Spirit.
