Simply Connected, The different sides and times, Before and after death
Simply connected
The heaven at the end of the light
Where all go regardless of their life
They walk on sleek golden roads
To meet the gods they once opposed
They are free to live how they please
Whether that be war or peace
The smell depending where you are
On one plane above the earth never scarred
Everything has the same feel as earth
And here is a paradise, for all a rebirth
The sound of playful fighting and deep understanding
Happens in the same heaven, no matter your standing
And if that bores them after thousands of years
They can ask the gods to leave and they will be all ears
They will be born again in the world of love
As the one god watches his children from above
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The different sides and times
I wander through the shine of night alone
The silver moon gleams with the glaring light
The beauty and the stillness of night shown
I think of secrets lost from all of sight
I slack on the porch and watch the waves flow
A slight breeze goes making leaves dance
The clouds pass with dazzling pictures
The pool with all life of the sea glows blue
The sun arose along with sleepy eyes
All life lights up with the bright light
The actions of day rule the world
Sounds of life small and large emerge
These times of life are seen by the makers of light
As they eternally cycle providing day and night

Before and after death,
Dear grandparents of mine,
You are the ones I have heard so much about
You are the ones said to have been so fun and never in doubt
Yet sadly we never had the chance to really meet
But the memories of my mother are never worn or beat
My body met your kind hands when I was a young boy
Unfortunately my mind never got to meet you or your joy
You are the reason I get to enjoy the water
And I thank you for the goodness of your daughter
Now I come back to this poem from a trip from which I lost
Sometimes this world gives great times but at what cost
I know now the true, cold nature of death
When someone dear to you no longer has breath
My hands met that casket today and it was deathly cold
That pain was worse than I could have ever been told
My father's father will now live almost in solitude
Sometimes this unforgiving world is much to crude
