Visitation
At night I often wondered, when I sat here all alone,
perchance do spirits travel, or in the cosmos roam?
Do they taste the joy of freedom as they glide through stilly air,
or do they like to visit, as their host sleeps unaware?
Last night I dreamt her spirit, met mine for a little while;
they talked and laughed together, with unearthly winsome smiles.
And as I looked upon this scene my heart was filled with bliss,
when the spirits drew much closer and then exchanged a kiss.
My eyes bewitched I followed, as they sailed through starry gems,
to softly light this mortal orb, which once was home to them.
In wonderment and awe I watched their shadows cross the moon.
Two souls both joined in harmony, as they danced in silent tune.
The dream then changed so quickly, and her voice I seemed to hear
as it spoke of joy and wisdom, making everything so clear.
'Mortal time on earth is short, but here in this infinite sky,
love is always remembered and no one ever dies'.
Then her spirit filled my empty heart and gently took my hand,
to breathe these words of faith and hope, which I now understand.
'Tonight it was decided, you must leave this world you see,
for the spirits you have gazed upon, were really you and me'
