Digital painting…….Following the light.
The Rebirth….
I wrote this years ago and never really understood where it came from. I was awake in the night and it suddenly occurred to me that this piece could be related to death. I’m sat here and mum is sleeping peacefully in her bed, I’m determined not to start crying because it also came to me in the night that our loved ones never leave us. Their physical bodies wear out but their spirits live on.
A part of you sits deep within me never to leave
I feel the comfort of your soul
My old life has gone for ever
At last I will be free
The emotions inside me are like never before
I physically feel as if the real me is bursting out of my body
And I feel a joy so strong it makes me weep
For my soul that has sat within me crying for freedom
The chains that encased my heart are snapping open
I will be whole and free to soar above the earth
And all that has gone before me will be forgotten
Life and death will be as one
No beginnings and no endings
Just a constant flow of emotions
Far greater than any thoughts
Better and greater than any joy ever experienced
Calmness inside I can see the new beginning
The energy of the universe
Dancing around me with beautiful colours
Soft touches like a soft breeze move around me
But I have just realised I am not in the human form
I have stepped outside the shell in which I was living
I am light I am the light of a thousand different shades
I have no fear no expectations
I just am.

I love the graphic above your painting. The poem is beautiful, Elaine. I am very happy you seem so satisfied – that’s not really the word I was looking for, but maybe content is better? The painting is an interesting choice for the poem…always keep me guessing, eh?

Lol, I wrote that poem at a very sad time in my life back in 2012. It’s good to keep you guessing 😉
