Dappled with joy and pain were the times
As this long life, meandering, grew
Finally the evening has come
And something is showing through
Many years throw their shadows long
Across the forests of my life
Nearby the leaves still glow green-gold
But in the blue of distance is a new light
Blue-purple dims ever deeper into dark
So slides the color of the sky
Soon night's mystery will take hold
So we grow old, but what care I?
When I was young I journeyed once
And flew into a cloud of white
Past the dark tunnel all travel through
Where death's door sits just out of sight
It is approaching yet again
Again my soul will see the other side
It is not something I deeply fear
For a better land does there hide
Darker into the still sweet night
Beyond what mortal eyes can see
Advances my soul to seek a different light
Let me return to that land so free
If many humans should travel there soon
To that land so subtle and bright
I will not mourn but know they now fly
In that vaster space beyond the night
And I will soon join them as we all will
For this life is contained within that realm
This life has more limited dimensions
There you ride a light ship at the helm
If your subtle vibratory body is light
And your soul not weighed down but is free
You will fly when you let go of the 3D body
I know it happened to me
Then telepathically I heard the words
"You must go down to the earth once more"
With no sound in my head that message I heard
My heart was heavy, I wanted no more
The color around me now was vibrant gold-green
Down I travelled, down like lightening
To earth below which was a soul need
To earth, dull and dense and frightening
I donned the heavy earth vibration
Loathsome after flying in the light
Determined to work off my earth karma
Until my soul be right
