Salve et Vale (L)


 







P






I've rather enjoyed creating these poetic short stories, but now I must gracefully depart for a short while.


An exotic sweet voice calls me to newer lands.


In case you're curious or inquisitive, they were never about anyone living in particular, but simply references from whence I sometimes visit.


A new road has suddenly reared right up in front of me and started calling.


If you're here just visiting, I send you blessings from the Red Church and best wishes from the Great In-Between.


This was always going to happen, and it's why I made that book which cover is above if you choose to look.

That voice I sometimes hear told me to ✍ 


My last piece.

 

Sometimes


You've just got to be brave enough to say goodbye to old ways and try to heal raw opened emotional sores as you look to life to give you more


It may feel like you've been through all the worlds many wars but nobody's perfect and everybody has their scars and sometimes unspoken flaws


Some may choose to hide it so well and smile and try to put on a favourite well-loved mask


And some don't 


Some may say strange things in tempestuous moments of heat as they sharpen their ferocious claws


And some may say nothing at all

But just think 


People are just human after all


Misfits in the grandest of schemes wandering around like lost little children 


After they've been given a life's spiritual work permit 


But you know 

I've already lived five times in 6 hundred years 


Lived

Loved and cried some many wet tears


Now I've returned for the seventh


And here's what I know as I return from a short stint before I go back to my place in Heaven 


Life and all its emotional connections are simply explained in one line of poetry 


Which is written in bold italics in God's eternal archives 


What to know what it is?

It simply says

Do the best with your time before you too have to die
