What will be the name of my last poem?
when I take my final breath in life
I wonder if I will be holding my pen?
when my invitation arrives
Will I be writing poetry til the end?

Will my words be a final good bye?
Will I have a teardrop in my eye?
as my soul starts to climb
Will I be dreaming?
drifting on a cloud of rhyme

Will I  clasp my quill pen tight?
my feathered pen of cotton ink
writing across a cloud
eternal clouds of neon pink

Will I beyond the stage of life
be writing eternal scrolls?
in a kingdom of budded clouds
memoirs of earths theatrical roles

I hope I will be above
in the eternal  balcony
in a cloud of pearly beads
penning eternal thoughts
reciting rhyming creeds

Victoria, with writing like this I'm in no doubt that you'll be doing it for eternity. I hear God has a vacancy in His scroll-writing department that I'm sure He'll hold for you until you're ready.

Well, I say, once you're a writer, there's no turning back.  So, I think we'll all have our pens in hand, so to speak, when it's 'our time.'  Great poem, Victoria!

What a lovely thought...
Who knows, maybe it's in the plan.
