A Heart to Heart High above arched mountaintops where slope the sunlit green treetops and Sky's foundation, made of blue, is Heaven's bottom floor. A spiral staircase lead straight up and smelled of fresh cake uncorrupt then emptied to a chambered room just past a chambered door. A giant scale loomed silent there suspending plates each side on air and Osiris sat a jewelled throne of gold and blue and red. My time was up. It was too late to change my Life, to change my Fate when Anubis, large with jackal ears, said "Here we judge the Dead." "One side the scale is placed your heart wherein wisdom rests from end to start. Man fools himself and thinks to gain but wisdom rests not in the brain. Lightened is the heart that lifts Humanity from evil, waste and a world's insanity. Heavy is the heart that drags Man down to selfishly gain some feeble ground." "And no lie or alibi from them fails to dupe the scale's prime measurer, the Feather of Truth. For a lightened heart will not the Feather overtip but one made heavy will the scale down dip and the Devourer will come, croc jaws ice cold, eating hearts made heavy by deeds of heartless Souls. But the lightened heart will pass to a cosmic clime where Souls commune the universe 'til Resurrection time." "Now your hour has come and you tremble with Fear. They're bringing your heart. It's close. It's near. You've had a lifetime of heartbeats, true and untrue, now their worth against the Feather is the measure of you." "Step forward !"

Blues Serenade – Now you’ve gone and done it. You’ve begun to serenade away all the blues I’ve accumulated this week with your wonderful words. I’m startin’ to feel a lot better. I am totally elated that you enjoyed this and it’s always a pleasure to hear from you too. And that’s a heart to heart Lori. Namyh |
