Homeward Bound

One of those things for which you leap out of bed at two in the morning and reach out for paper and pencil. Orthodox readers might find it slightly blasphemous (Please don’t take offence. This is between God and me). Please tell me if you find this juvenile.

I am here sitting
On top of the greatest pyramid that’s ever been built.
You know what I’m going to do?
Build another step and then climb it.
And again.
And again.
Then maybe let somebody else climb.

Last night I was chatting with God in a chatroom.
He promised to talk to me on phone soon.
Then one day I’ll meet Him.
And maybe shake hands with Him.
And definitely kiss Him on the lips.
Then one day I will be Him.
Home.

There’s a long way to go!
But every moment is going to be more exciting
Than sky diving!

  1. No, not juvenile at all. 🙂 The theme is good. One of those ideas that come to you unexpectedly and before you know it, you end up with a poem in your head.
