Living with family and friends we get immense joy. Floral fragrance creates nice sensation and beauty motivates mind. God is all in all. He as created beauty, nature and life on Earth. This is an excellent poem! ..5 stars.

like a spinning midge, my spirit veered high and low between Heaven and Earth between Mortality and Immortality.A helium balloon buoyant in the air. These are the thoughts of the soul that just separated from the mortal body which is still warm. Great thought....10

There was crying and whining, sighing and sobbing in stirring memory of days in all goodness spent and of bonds stretching beyond life's rim which set me feel sick of where I was and where I wasn't so fain to go, so fain to stay, like a spinning midge, my spirit veered high and low between Heaven and Earth between Mortality and Immortality. A helium balloon buoyant in the air.........touching expression with nice theme. Beautiful oiem shared. Thanks.

It’s an amazing piece of poetry! You have revealed your poetic mind-set in a highly insightful version. There has been a conscientious self appraisal of your inner psyche so beautifully crafted…..”like a spinning midge/my spirit veered high and low/between Heaven and Earth/between Mortality and Immortality”. I love the way it is penned so gripping! (10)

There are many questions that have not been replied yet, and sometimes force us to think that spirits are born again and again.

If there are more than one solar systems exist in the universe. which solar system does the heaven exist? Journey has to be performed, can not be postponed. Quite interesting poem! Well written!
