A Talk Between Friends

You asked me,
"Will we know each other...
recognize each other
if we blew into particles~
floating embers of spirits...
would we still know one another,
or forget?"
I can say to you that I don't
know how I know we will,
but I believe we will never forget.

I do not care to prove my thoughts
with grand explanations,
but yes I believe...
we will all merge
back into one Holy Entity
One,
but each separate in our own uniqueness
and at that time,
know one another
beyond realms imagined.
This is what I see, my friend
when I have a glimpse behind the veil
I cannot find the words to express
why I am not afraid.

I just envision that at that time
all that encumbers us,
will drop from us like a heavy
knight's armor;
relieved of our blindness and our baggage,
we will glow like stars
on a soft Georgia night,
and smile at one another across the sky
