This came to me in my sleep & I couldn't get back to sleep till I wrote something about it...


Poem Artwork



Last night I did die,

Through my roof I did fly,

From the outside I looked through the glass,

To see me or hear from me this will be the last…


Already I especially miss my lady & dog,

I can barely see them through a sort of fog,

I seem to be naked as the day I was born,

Between being earth bound,

And attracted to the heavens, I am torn…

 

So no more of me will you see,

My ashes were scattered near my sea,

No more pain do I feel,

No more yearnings or hunger,

But I do miss my lady and puppy a great deal…

Astral traveling, are we? Have fun, but remember to return to the body. Nicely done, even if a little scary.

Bet I know where that fog came from....LOL

Wait a minute, Salty Walt said that, too.

I know:

"I seem to be naked as the day I was born"

Now, I will have nightmares, picturing that. Thanks, Bro.

That was some out of body experience, Ed. Or were you...? HA!

Either or, it made ya think, I see!
...and it makes one reflect on who they'd miss...
but, do we miss the ones we leave behind...I don't think so, or nobody would be so unconsciousley ready for this whole part of life!

The light enables us to feel euphoria and our need to return is as happy as the spirit has ever been and somehow...it's all okay.
Love and glad you're still with us.

Obviously you didn't die, you woke up above ground. Don't worry so much. Just live like you don't have a tomorrow--(((HUG))) your lady and dog, and keep writing while you can.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
