THE LESS ONE FEARS DEATH (Lisl Marburg Goodman) ;void(0)) Spiritual Reflections about life Several Award-winning poems published in anthologies  When I was a little boy I remember being scared Of death Of eternity Of feelings I did not understand Little did I know about life, And that’s why I was scared Of death Of eternity Of everything I could not understand I have grown a little now And I’m no longer scared Of death Of eternity Of what exists, of what just is Because I have at long last understood That I remain a beloved child Of God Of Divine Providence Of all that exists within and without I am divinely pure I am divinely innocent I am the eternal present moment We are all eternal © 2002 He who’s afraid of death Does not know the Truth yet To many it’s the end To a few it’s a friend But none of them are right They haven’t seen the Light Beyond the appearance Placed there for convenience Death is an illusion Just a mere transition Between incarnated And disincarnated It’s only a short ride To reach the other side A change from physical To the plane called astral And He who does get there At once is everywhere That’s not an illusion Nor a sad conclusion There is no mortality Just Divine reality © 2002 Now I have just one question: Why does the tradition Make us blow out candles To celebrate the birth of life? Somehow It just does not seem right To be putting an end To energy so bright To celebrate the birth of life Anyhow There is something odd here; Should not we light them up And keep the flame burning To celebrate the joy of life? Here and now I wonder if it’s not Our way to acknowledge Our mortality… strange way To celebrate the joy of life! Take a bow And rethink: deep inside There is right within you Another radiant way To celebrate eternal life © 2002 Note: these three poems also published in the book: The Servant of the Light, © 2003 see website Servantofthelight | Inspirational Poems | Angeline | A Karmic Lesson | Samples1 | Samples2 | | Return Home | Architecture & Planning | Fine Arts | Writing | Poetry | Music | Photography | Theater | Contact | |
