The photo and couplets so compliment each other, Eileen, both so very beautiful! There is such aura here that resonates astral traveling. I feel I must put on special goggles to communicate with this heavenly place! There really is a desire to know of this place you speak of. I see spiritualism as a corollary to religion here.

The words convey an artist painting a picture. Wonderful imager in this one, Eileen.

"...As their vibrant colors cascade
poured over bodies like marinade..."

Also could be lunch...enjoyed reading.

Love and light surround this place
abundant joy fills every space

This is the ideal place I wish to be. Soft and sweet poem with words flow like a stream of rivulets while feeding the nose with the aroma of a love flowers and honey. I like when you go to the stars. GBQ

I concur with Joselyn below in entirety Eileen !
You initiate peace at every level of these divine couplets, which is an art in itself, and you combine it all by sharing your compassionate heart with us on this celestial and wonderful odyssey !
The picture too is absolutely stunning, thought I could see a winged creature or bat in it too !
Love

Stunning couplets, Eileen! Vibrant, colourful and holding a glorious tension between all that we cherish in the here and now and what we seek to aspire to in our dreams of a heaven. What I particularly like about this is that you have done it with a piquancy that sharpens the palette - non-cloying and no mush! Makes me hungry to be there! :)) K xx

Knowing nothing on this earth can match this is so true this is so beautiful. Holds peace with each line. We I feel know where we have formed from before our mothers womb I like to think we were nursed those 9 months within motherly angels love and protection. not so realistic considering the children that are not born a live but as in anything creation is creation. All that is has been given us by The Creator. He is a masterful and beautiful creator. Thanks for sharing with me the Blood Drops and pale one. That was such a moving story.
I write I am by far not a good writer but I write from the heart it is not so much how we do it but in how it is received.
Encouragment is a blessing so are your comments.

Can't match these amazing couplets either, Eileen. When you speak of the heavens, et al, you do it with passion.

Eileen,
You have what we call inner peace, and I know that it wasn't easily found, for it never is. Not only is it yours but you embrace it.
This is another one of your soul writes that makes the rest of us jealous a bit, because we know the peace you write about, is not something just anyone can obtain.
Wonderful write Eileen!
