Poem 15 - Invitation

A/N:

This one is written on May 2, 2012... I tried a new style of writing a poem..

I do hope I nailed it...

I'll be much obliged to know what you think of this one. I was very happy when I wrote this.

Dedicated to Angela Libao Tanghal. She was the first one to read my draft. And she told me she liked it. =) Hello there Angela! (kaway kaway!)

Invitation

Come with me to a glorious land

Where dead men live and never die;

Where a child never tells a lie;

Where things are free that cash can't buy;

Where no one ever hears a cry;

Where contrite sinners touch the sky;

Where there is more than meets the eye;

Where dreams are truly soaring high;

Where nothing ever goes awry;

Where sublime beauty makes one sigh;

Where we'll grow wings and learn to fly;

For it will happen, if we try.

So, come.. follow this shining light,

Let no darkness hinder your sight.

Journey on, with all of your might;

The prize you'll get is worth the fight,

Because soon it will all be right.

Wear your garments of purest white,

And let us go that way tonight.

Forget your fright and hold on tight,

To the heavens, we will take flight;

We will soar to a greater height.

By the stars above, glowing bright,

We will know that God sees this plight.
