The temple speaks, Embrace quiet peace let it flow
into your storm tossed soul until your heart at ease
your body again whole for here is where we meet
in the after life, this desolate place waits
for you and I to be the beacons of light,
as we grow gossamer wings and take flight

I like your last line best, “grow gossamer wings and take flight.” In more miserable times I had wished or wanted to fly by jumping out my second floor window. And at those times it really didn’t matter whether I could fly or drop to the ground, dead.

“embrace quiet peace” Oh, I don’t do enough of that. I love the idea of becoming light.

This really speaks to me, Linda.. the place of peace seems so out of reach these days. Maybe that is what death is for, after all.

I really like your positive take on the monolith Linda, and very well written. Your temple brings one peace. Wonderful perspective. Enjoyed it. I went to the technology apocalypse. I must have been in a dark mood?

Yes, we certainly do. I think we tend to underestimate our power to make the world a better place.
