Reincarnating Throughout the Universe
As a visitor, I can honestly say
This earth is just one of an infinite number of living orbs
Spinning throughout the Cosmos
Each one unique according to Its Suns' design
Enlightened beings know that
All stars are Alive Super Intelligent Beings
Capable of enormous entropy
Raw energy expanding forever and ever
Ever since the Big Bang
For in the beginning there was only darkness
But from the darkness came Light
Opening all this unto us
For darkness was empty without light
A flickering flame on a candle still dances to this day
At the glory of Creation
What looks like chaos through the lens of a telescope
Is pure beauty and absolute genius
To experience it fully is to enjoy the ride
Open our eyes and our hearts
And realize how abundant life has blossomed here
How amazing our Sun shines
How wonderful it is to breathe
It is good to be alive
And to my delight
How wonderful it was to find
A fellow traveler of the Divine
Death is just a wakeup call
From this dream of life
Sleep is a slipping through for the moment
In closing our eyes, we dive into the darkness
Just as unaware of what we'll find there
Hoping for answers, perhaps some clue
I'm on vacation, just a visitor here
This earth's just a pitstop for me
This skin feels a bit too tight
Wound around my light
However, I'm not quite ready to leave just yet
For each place has its purpose
Most orbs are just schools of rock
Like a clock ticking and full of talk
Some truly are heaven on earth
Still others are a living hell
Don't recommend staying there too long
If at all possible
So please, don't make me have to leave too soon.
