Visits to Earth

How often I have visited

the lands of endless pain

greeted by indifference

or actions so insane

of tortures justified,

where victims are ‘to blame’

for ‘unbelief’ or ‘wrong belief’

or ‘claiming rights’ to gain

the Soul’s inherent freedoms

crushed, yet ever live again.

Beyond our silent agonies-

beyond our screams I soared

to where no harm could follow me-

to where no pain could reach-

back to the heavenly realms

of endless, loving peace.
