Glass Ceiling Skies

Quote: When these corporal bodies of ours have blown away into the wind like shredded ribbons loosed from a kite, towards glass ceiling skies we will fly, then go to a place where no one ever truly dies. Up in heaven the flowers are blooming softly and with great intent for God pitched a great big tent up there, for those who need it most No greater joy than to live for all eternity wrapped in His loving light Heaven, a place where even eagles say goodnight... Up in heaven there is no war, no famine and no disease for love is the warrior that never ceases to exist and compassion is the gold ring of great, great mercy No safer place to be than in the Kingdom of God where Angels sing and trumpets blare and we are like rare porcelain to His eyes Heaven, a place where even butterflies say bye-bye.

Your initial quote tugged on my heart, and I felt teary eyed as I thought of the metaphor you created of a kite in glass ceiling skies. Absolutely beautiful words. Your description of heaven was reassuring and filled with delightful imagery. I especially liked: No safer place to be than in the Kingdom of God where Angels sing and trumpets blare Your poem was uplifting and inspirational. Have to fave it dear Rose. Have a splendid evening, Sara

No need to throw roses at my feet dear one, I'd rather you pluck one and insert it into your own heart, and know it was from me to you xo

Dear Rose, your artistic words paint a celestial canvas, depicting a realm where earthly burdens fade into whispers and souls soar towards "glass ceiling skies." In this ethereal haven, flowers bloom with purpose, and love reigns eternal, casting out shadows of strife. I loved your vision of heaven transcending earthly limitations, inviting us to the beauty of eternity and the tender embrace of God's grace. Honestly, in this heavenly abode, even butterflies bid farewell with a whisper of joy. - Blessings, Daniel
