Bones Walks the Streets of Heaven |

Bones found no big surprises walking the streets of Heaven. He found the people who knew and loved him, and those who would have cared about him, had they known him. Missing were those that looked down on him from their higher ground. The people who had no time for him, or just ignored him, and didn’t care. Bobby |

Hi Bobby -- I'm missing the point here. Is Bones delusional? Trying to put this in context with your work. Maybe a mistake on my part. Been known to happen. Best, Jimbeaux |

Thanks Jimbeaux, You must have missed the poem where Bones is brutally murdered by a group of his clients. Being someone who never hurt anyone, he went straight to heaven. Bobby |

Bobby, The Bones Series has made me so sad. I guess because I knew the end. I am glad that Bones found happiness on the streets of heaven, but I feel so much sorrow for the time he spent on Earth. Alison |

Thanks Chopsticks, Yes, you've got that right. South Broad Street is a very long street. It runs all the way to heaven. Bobby |
