A Mere Dream Dying Is


From the moment she had noticed the Light

She had reached a state of exultation

That, by her life, she had never experienced.

A deep joy had welled up inside her

And given her wings.

An irresistible will hand taken her up

And gave her sensations

Of falling into a fathomless abyss of Light.


Unimaginable must be her speed now,

And none the less, like to a dream, she followed

The spirals of a tunnel in slow motion,

Closer and closer to the source of the Light.

Hands seemed to caress her and from afar

Faint voices to call her; familiar faces

Appeared out of nothing and vanished again.


Now I am in Heaven!

Not a mere thought, rejoicing, this knowledge

Of truth pervaded the whole of her being.

A mighty choice set to; one voice

Of thousands of voices, one sound

Of a symphony of sounds

Swelled and faded and melted

Into one single voice, clear as a sapphire.



White shapes, in rows beyond eyeshot,

Spiraled around, imbued with a golden shine.

As if held by the finest of fillets,

They encircled her, like garlands, around her

And beyond, propelled by the same ecstatic urge

That had taken her here herself.


Laughing, they took her and pulled her along

In their rapturous speed,

Till on their glorious string a pearl she was,

And her Light became one with their splendour.
