In the early morning light
my eyes took flight
through clouds dark
orange and rose
with a pinch of sunlight.
Higher and higher still
I climbed
for all the world
to see, was mine.
Amidst the velvety softness
peace reigned.
With a cloud for a pillow
way too thin
I looked within
and there
on a shelf of a wispy
cloud
she reposed.
Such beauty I've never
seen
in all the earth let alone heaven.

Grace and Mercy were there
each side; wings folded
not a whisper
heard
until I placed
a Kiss upon Sweet Lips
and now all Heaven cried.

Of the dark and light of that Glorious Day
as I turned to leave I heard her say
For that Kiss won't you stay
but alas; you are mortal
I'm immortal
one of
us has
to die
to drink of the cup that none
has dared to do again except;

My heart knew the answer.
