One journey ends and a new one begins. We look to the future and dream of what lies ahead.

 

The light at the end of the tunnel remains bright, as we go on our . . .

 

 

Journey To Forever

 

Clouds blanketed

the autumn sky,

my mind cluttered

with thoughts

of the past,

but I didn’t

know why.

 

Being careful

not to slip

on the damp pavement

beneath my feet,

I walked

with caution

on my mysterious trip.

 

A trip to somewhere

I didn’t know,

where I might

find my way—

a place

I knew

I had to go.

 

Pushed along

by an inner drive,

I focused

on a bright future,

one where dreams

come true,

and I could thrive.

 

People around me

seemed to glow,

faces smiling,

as they

beckened me

to move

with the flow.

 

My mind,

in a confused state,

but open

to entering

the future

to discover

my fate.

 

The wind

carried me along.

As I glided,

I listened

to angels above

singing a melody—

a beautiful song.

 

One journey ended,

as another started,

one that would

last forever,

as I entered

the land

of the dearly departed.
