Dancing In The Heavens

I walked along the river's trail as the music softly plays;
Orchestrating far beyond the pastel sunlit rays.
The sun almost descended as the evening came to be;
A majestic painted canvas for all the world to see.

I thought I saw some movement through a rainbow-colored storm,
but such, was just beyond my sight, this transparent, twirling form.
A bird that swept across the sky heard too, the wind's romance
and let the wings of angels guide him to the dance.

Higher, toward the heavens as he faded from my sight.
And my heart cried out to join him on his last, Eternal Flight.
The need burned deep within me for the God that I so love;
I forgot about this earthly place as I fixed my eyes above.



The wind blew all around me and I too, had soared the sky;
My spirit free from bonds within a heart needing to cry.
There were no solemn faces~no harps, or looks beware. . .
Dancing in the heavens were angels everywhere.

These smiling faces brightened when our time came to an end,
for they knew one day, forever, we would dance this way again.
Yes, my spirit saw a place my eyes could never see.
And I became a part of what was waiting there for me.

Again, I found myself alone as the music softly plays;
Orchestrating far beyond the pastel sunlit rays.
