A promised eternal paradise
Prepared by our Creator
Earth a temporary home
Some making it hell

Never meant to survive
The test of time
Just as our bodies
Disappear in a wink

Hosting our immortal spirits
Before beginning forever's trip
Every spin of planet
Another tick of clock

This tiny little world
Only a brief crib
A universe nest
For minds to grow

So that one day
When souls are ready
They surely will fly
Saying goodbye to mortality

Leaving behind all errors
Taking only good lessons
That single blue globe
Being turned off forever

As He finally returns
In a glorious light
To take the rest
Of His children home

Your words flow from your pen.And what a great day that shall be.

I too await that day. This is one promise I know will come to pass. Absolutely beautiful writing, Sir Robert.  

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.
