DRIFTING SOULS

An unspeakable act has sent them adrift
souls escaping into a endless bliss
leaving lifeless shells in the rubble below
as the dimming fires lose there glow

Skies filled with angels... escorts for God
guiding all... through the smoke filled fog
reaching out to gently wrap
showing the way, never looking back

A wonderful calm, embraces with love
opening heavens from up above
whiter then white, brighter then bright
unexplainable beauty such a beautiful sight

Angels... many standing in a row
sending off a blinding glow
sounds of harmony absorbed within
a place of peacefulness a place with no sin

Faces of loved ones embedded in light
voices of welcome fulfill this night
as all draw close it becomes clear
everlasting life, a place without fear
