Eternity's Home...sonnet*
What price to welcome Eternity home...
What price has our sun paid for it's rising,
Shining, on Forever...faraway lands...
Squealing, laughing, children playing in sands
Where ancient reptiles left their tracks behind...
Where dolphins mated water, earth, water.
Who tore Eternity's spinning apart...
Why hasn't it's mending ended? But starts
Again each day, one hour closer in Time.
Again, light laughter of unknown children
Sifting Forever through little fingers...
Settling for food, warmth, sleep. Answers linger
In every birth, in each child...Welcome
For Eternity. And, in their eyes...Home.

I am beginning to understand this concept of eternity. I, too, one day will have to step over to the other side of it, as we all will have to. My friends Justice, Arafel, and now Sandahl are there.
In many respects, the words to a song by the Righteous Brothers say a lot about it for me.
"If you believe in forever
Then life is just a one-night stand
If there's a rock and roll heaven
Well you know they've got a hell of a band"

I have read a few piece by you and I like this one so far. This one really connects with me. The others haven't. I hope I like more of your work.
