What about heaven? Whats in it for me? No Body No work no need to sleep Is this the way forward to set oneself free See I quite like the orderly life that I keep Can I dream about heaven ? well actually NO! No Cars Ships or Airplanes no fun to travel Just floating in space with no real place to go Who cares about mysteries yet to unravel? In my mind I have freedom to dream as I wish Where anything’s possible all can be funny Life here down on earth life can also is bliss In buying your fancy and spending your money To float about singing is not my real aim Even with old friends for what it is worth Without their bodies it will not be the same Just a “Good Memory” of “Life Down on Earth” Eric Lance Davies |

quote: Thank you for the smiles you induced with this "floating about singing". Sometimes when we are particularly happy down here, we get a feeling of total bliss and can't imagine loosing the source of this happiness (be it a love bond, something delicious we eat, the joy of children, the incredible beauty of this world, etc.). I think it's good we don't actually know what will happen. Funny, also James Michael speaks about this theme in his latest post. He sees it like a state of perfection and perfection includes all the things we love, I guess ... Singing and floating might just stand for true bliss. I am sure it will be an overwhelming surprise and beyond anything we dare to imagine ... Thank you for this great poem, which made me smile, yes, but also think. Love, Margherita ![]() |

"To float about singing is not my real aim Even with old friends for what it is worth Without their bodies it will not be the same Just a “Good Memory” of “Life Down on Earth” ~ Hmm, you may have a point there! Earth bodies can be whole lot more fun to play with than heavenly ones! lol Love & Heavenly Light ![]() EA |

"In my mind I have freedom to dream as I wish Where anything’s possible all can be funny" If that is the case, as long as you take your mind with you when you go surely heaven will be what you make it????? |
