Yes I know I will die,
I know that this body will die,
But I will not.
My Spirit is Immortal
And will go on to eternity
Taking the memories,
The memories of this life
With me to infinity.
While I am in this earthly life
I need to create those memories
So my time in this body is limited,
But each moment is special,
And I will glory in each of them.
The time will come
When My Spirit leaves my body
And those Special moments
Will be with me,
Will be with me as I sail,
Sail towards eternity,
Knowing that I will always exist,
As will those moments,
Those moments within me.

A fine write Gold. Erm, one sort of spirit may leave now, or be diluted, cos I come along with the water. I'm a pest! lol. It's a riot for me, this season - the phantom whisky-waterer (or any spirit)!
Aww, why no-one invite me to parties then?
You have to find me first.
I might be disguise, or even in a Santa costume. heehee. "Ohh, I love it really". Those words came to me when I thought of the hustle and bustle of this season, involved as I was with avoiding shopping trolleys. Don't blame wonky trolleys, it's people that can't drive them! And we don't exist then. They run straight in to you, some of them. They should have driving tests for them.
we only have your word for that tho
It may only be my word but I know, I can't prove it to others, but I know.
as long as you know, that's fine
Thanks UNCLE ANDY ~ A real musical & Poetic treat for a cold Friday morning in ESSEX ! I am an acoustic Folk & Country & Gospel Guitar Player ~ I loved the deep harmony of the 12 string at the beginning ! Love the song it is mine & Angelas cos we are apart for Christmas (BOO HOO !) WISH YOU WERE HERE !
Love the truth in your Poem. MEMORIES are soemtimes all we have of Past Lives & Past Loves. I have many memories of AUCKLAND NZ so that wen I phone or Skype ANGELA I am there with her ~ Sailing in the BAY ~ AMEN. Even @ 35 I have many Friends & Family in GLORY and I look forward to sharing memories with them when we are reunited forever with the LORD ~ AMEN Love & Blessings @ Christmas to you both and many glasses of RIOJA ~

Thank you Brian, you have many wonderful memories yet to come, your life together will be blessed with many such memories.
Hi, great write, I'm glad I got you thinking :). I may write a new one called "who is it that says yes I exist?"...then again it's close to Christmas and time to lighten up a little, haha.
That you Ed, it is surprising where the ideas come from.
