Poem -
gloriously flawed
Tis my fear that the angels
Will change you somehow
Tarnish you maybe
Too bright with the light
Polish and buff till you
Gleam in their sun
Make holy your soul and
Kill off all the fun
Tis my fear that they dress
you
In white cloth and harp
That the boredom of heaven
Will tear you apart
That you'll grieve us and life
and your battered guitar
So insist that they let you
Stay just as you are
Gloriously flawed
Slightly tattered and fun
You dont need to be saint
You're just perfect as... son

Oh this begs so much more and so I read it, and read it again. Inspired, confused, thoroughly enthralled.
What things have been done to our minds that we 'see' visions of the afterlife in the constraints of a tradition that took our innate spiritual nature and conquered it with dogma so far removed from what we really are. "You dont need to be saint You're just perfect as..."
Beautiful.
Thanks so much for your lovely comment my friend. So sorry for late reply ...hugs x
Had to pin this! I think it is much more likely that your dear, darling boy is up there playing his guitar his way and the angels are all rocking to his music, halos crooked but all in good chorus. 😉 xx
Lol...hope so. My big worry...
eats me up...
Do we leave our earthly identities behind...can't bear the thought of this ...AND...god is in big fucking trouble when I get there
if we do 😌😔 Thanks Tina xx
Leave our earthly identities behind? Hmmm ... I don't think we do! When I have seen psychics do readings the deceased seem very much as they were, character wise, when living. But who is to say there is only one and not many after life alternatives? Xx
Thanks love xx
I can only imagine the unrelenting pain. I think, to me, it would all seem unreal. To be gone forever?? Nooooo ... can't be ...just can't be. I felt that way when I experienced a death for the first time. I was 4 and it was "Uncle George" and I couldn't get my head around that he was gone. Gone gone. I do get it, how uou feel ...and I really do wish you all the very best and I hope that you soon see signs that he is still around. Love and hugs xx
I suppose every relationship and bond is felt differently Tina...it would be silly to say all parents love their kids some kill them and sometimes even when they do love them their man is more important. Others are besotted and some love but don't particularly like them... for others it is everything life is about. I fall into the latter category. My two kids are and continue to be my entire life. They are the deepest and most intense bonds i have ever felt...more so as they grew. They are/were the two people I choose to be around above all others. One gone is an impossible concept for me, something I will never ever come to terms with or find peace with or move on from despite what everybody loves to tell me. I used to long to say to my friends when I occasionally saw them...really??? Would you??? Imagine that daughter you spend every moment with ...gone...dead...never coming back...forever, now imagine I tell you .. ah, she is happy with the angels. You'll miss her less in time. I never said this to them I just stopped seeing everyone. Strangely I have found other parents to be the most blasé especially when the child is adult as if this negates the fact of them being your child in the first place. Jesus I could write a book...or maybe I have...here on cosmo lol...😬😬🙃🙂...hugs my friend. I hope you are still gloriously happy and content In your life love and that everything is working out xx
I get it ... I do. I too fall into the category where my kids are THE most important people in my life. I live for them and love them unconditionally ... like you. I honestly do t know what I'd do if I lost one of them so my heart truly, truly goes out to you. OH, and my grandaughters are sooo loved too. I can see that my son loves his little daughters the same way we love our kids. What a bond! Grief is the flip side of love ...the more you love, the more it hurts when loss happens xx
Then you are one of the truly rich people Tina...as I am. I try never to forget that despite writing to the contrary lol.... many blessings to you and yours my friend 💖
Yes, rich isn't all about money! And many blessings to you and yours too sweet friend, I hope you manage to have a peaceful night xx
BEAUTIFUL!!....Wow!!.......just perfect!!.......T xo : )
