+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+ A whirlwind of color surrounds me when I fly, through luminescent archways in rainbow summer sky. I'm lighter than a gentle breeze that lifts balloons up high, and freer than the songbirds that wing across the sky. My heart beats in harmony with the pulse of Mother Earth. I've been in touch with Nature since the moment of my birth. I have a sense of purpose and I see through eyes of mirth. By flowing with the Universe, I have a sense of worth. My home is very far away, ~ I exist on several planes. I travel heaven's skyways and on these earthly lanes. When I'm sad and lonely or suffering woes and pains, I simply rise above it all and head for peaceful reigns. +*+*+*+*+*+*+*+ |

My home is very far away, now I dwell on several planes. I travel heaven's skyways and on these earthly lanes. ~*~ Sometimes the only place to be! Enjoyed! |

An Angel indeed - heralding inspiration -  SusanHappiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

p s ~ I am more spiritual than "religious". Mind you, I had been baptized in three churches prior to my becoming a spiritualist! ~ Anglican, Evangelical, and Catholic. I appreciated your response, Dear Dixie! Love & Spirit Light, Linda |

When I'm sad and lonely or suffering woes and pains, I simply rise above it all and head for peaceful reigns. Beautiful poem of inspritation Linda. I wish it was always this easy to rise above those things that would keep us grounded here and not allow us to enjoy this peacefulness.... sigh.. very well done dear, thank you for this. |

iliana ~ Exactly, my friend! Once I learned to "let go and let God", I was able to fly free! It really works! I have been able to handle all that life dishes out to me ~ and believe you me, that has been considerable! ~ Let go and fly high and free! Great big, good morning hug, Linda |
