Eternal Life


I believe we live forever. . . 
Is there life after death?
I’ll let you know. . .
 in a few years.
 
I don’t know; some say our soul lives forever.
God bless us if that is true.
Being a spiritualist, 
I have struggled
 
Fighting with this over and over - 
But I have found one truth that matters
We do live forever. . . kinda, forever. . . 
In our love; our eternal God-given love
 
The love we first received from our parents -
then we shared with our children -
our children passed this love to our grandchildren;
And so on through the ages.
Yes, I will live forever. . .
through the ages. . .
with eternal Love. . .
I can be at peace with this thought.
