Here, Now, Forever

Hey Guys.

Just wanted to see if this one holds any chance of being published..

* * * * * * * * * * * * * *

The time has come, Oh unseen one,
Oh soul of mine I trust.
The unseen land past the gate of death awaits you,
as I breathe this final breath..

At this moment, I lie in pain,
at the end of a life NOT lived in vain!
Pondering that which awaits me soon,
When this heart beats no more..

I know not fear at this time now,
but glorious anticipation.
I'm going to soon find out just what exactly is our destination.

My dying heart trembles with wonderous delight,
I lay in my bed to die tonight.
The time has come, Oh unseen one!
I think we're going to be alright.

I have sent you nothing but angels, and I have placed nothing but miracles before you.

Joseph, I think that all type poetry will make it into the book. You wrote this very well, even if it did make me sad..
Hugs,

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Joseph, any poem that makes me cry or laugh is one worthy for the book in my point of view, your poetry is always so honest and makes you feel emotions therefore I proudly place my vote for this! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, my prayers are with those needing faith, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Joseph, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

If you can evoke that kind of emotion in me--whether it be glad--or sad as this one did--you're right on track!

Warm hugs for a heavy heart,
EA
