Listening to every heart

I want to fall up

come with me, let’s fall up
and not into something deep
I think it’s time to do it different
before we go to sleep

for if we fall up, and play in clouds
what a treat we’d find
all our problems now ant-size
all bad habits left behind

fall up with me, not in love with me
you don’t even have to be in like with me
but if you come fall up with me
wouldn’t that be heavenly?

Come let’s talk to angels,
and help them in the choir
now I don’t have much of a voice
but if you sing bass, I’ll sing higher…

and let’s make faces out of clouds
of animals or some such things
and while we play our game just right
let’s whip up some sun-rings

since we’re here, let’s grab God’s ear
and tell him how pleased we are
for this imagination he’s given us
c’mon with me, let’s fall up this far!

What is this? You don’t want to play
and fall up with me to far away?
and you’d toss my dreams to reality?
for the truth you’d rather see?

But can’t you see? There, in the skies
where up and up is in the blue?
why don’t you try just once with me
and let me fall up with you.

YES!! YES!! YES!!  Let's all fall up together.
Indeed I needed this as well today too Karilea.
Thank you....now lets try to fly from cloud to cloud.

To have lived the dream of a love so true...
   is to have seen a glimpse of heaven.

the whole thing...is wonderful...reminds me of my little one, he said the other night that yes, he knew what heaven was, it was God and a whole bunch of angels walking around on the clouds...and then shaking his head at me,(when I questioned his authority) he said, that God couldn't be down here, so he must be in the clouds...
well lady this poem sounds like heaven to me...and yep would love to fall up there with you

Falling up sounds so much softer then falling down. To be able to play in the clouds, maybe ride a star.
This is beautiful.

Sunshine,

this is lovely and shows your heart...

hugsss to you both

~~**~~
The way you move me
I walk with your shadow
With your silhouette
Leave the light on
It always comes
Back to you
