Memories Of Heaven Listen closely to my words I will not repeat them again. I will tell you a secret. I can remember a time before, the book of knowledge was opened, and the fruit of the tree eaten. Gardens in celeste bloom, with flowers of ethreal colors and scents of fragrant bouquet. A time when we were our most perfect selves, each known to the other with senses beyond my ability to explain. Knowing the beauty of beauties, and able to withstand and accept, without aching heart, or tortured soul,the splendor of all that was and wasn't and to know a love that transcended all, far beyond love as we understand it. Every morning an adventure, a journey of discovery, wonder and beloved joy. Visions beyond those that we know, dimensions of color and music meldings and meltings of our hearts and souls together a singular voice of faith and truth. Heaven is simply this... a return to innocence. it's to look into God's forever eyes and breath his breathe as he kisses us back to life. Mark 10:14 "Suffer the little children to come unto me, for of such is the kingdom of God."

I think you are right Forrest. Heaven must be a place of innocence. A place of perfect love. All that you are must be filtered so that the Human part the liar is gone so that when you enter heaven you are perfect. Thanks for the nice poem. I wonder if monkeys go to heaven? EJ |

Only the ones that mind there own business and the ones that don't cut a shine or carry a wrench. I guess I should be more serious and quit monkeying around. Thanks for the programs I downloaded them without tearing anything up(what the heck the screen went dead their's no lights in the house...) I heard(don't know that it's true they make this thing called a dictionarie I'm thinking of getting one) My blessed daughter on a more serios note taught me how to use microsoft spellcheck and how to cut and paste. I knew she would if I wrote her a Wizard Of Oz anything. God surely blessed me with wonderful women. later bro forrest |

hi forrest. sweet sentiment. you're good at those. just a few things i think you should do - stop at "i will tell you/ a secret" ya dont really need that other part, and somethin about it, i dunno, it gives me a "nyeah" kinda feelin. and, i would make it a more marked change when you say "heaven is simply this" maybe a stanza break or something. but definitely not a comma. ok, bye for now luv Elyse |

Elyse so kind of you to reply, don't want you to have those nyeah feelings cause the peptobismol and nyquil is in short supply. I do like it better minus this sentence. I value your opinions highly and seem more comfotable with things you have taught me and feel like I've made some progress with your most excellent help. luv forrest [This message has been edited by Forrest Cain (edited 07-04-2000).] |

 Thank you for the poem dedicated to me.I liked it so much that I sent myself an E-card. You have given to me some positive childhood memories to ponder. The picture of Jesus surrounded by little children is a wonderful mind set. As discussed earlier, One of my goals is to fullfil this beautiful image... Bob <>< |

Hello Forrest I loved this poem for its content and for a memory I had long forgotten, I hope you don't mind me sharing it with you... My Grandmother, bless her, was a Sunday School Teacher and one day she said, "The opening of the Book of Knowledge, was the beginning of man's demise." Of course, I was young and couldn't resist pushing my Grandmother's buttons on the topic of religion (it was the devil in me lol) responded by saying, "Grandma, you said man was made in God's image...how do you know for sure God wasn't a woman?" Well, that little test of the battle of the witts between my Grandmother and I cost me a whole Saturday writing out verses from the Bible...needless to say I stopped pushing those buttons  Thank you for the memory Forrest. One question before I sign out, I looked up the word 'ethreal' and couldn't find it anywhere, what's the meaning of it? your friend debbie Never underestimate the Power of Purpose. Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why it's called the 'Present' unkn |
