When the sky falls softly

When the sky falls softly
And the heavens roar
Don't forget to say goodbye
As you wander the earth
Wearing only your soul
I'll hold you in the light
Remember your temple
Has no stones
And your destiny is the sky
You're the timeless heart of the universe
The entrance to paradise
Thanks to my son, NASA, the Hubble Space Telescope, the cosmos itself and the Sadhus, Babas and elephants of India.

Hey everybody.
Long time no see. I like what you've done with the place.
Howdy OPOL...
Great to have you stop by and post! Love the picture of your son in the waterfall. Thank you very much, sir.
Excellent essay and hope you post more of your work.
Thanks, JtC
Things suck at the GOS. I have a bigger, political essay in the final stages. I'll cross post it if that's okay. It may go up tomorrow at the all new trainwreck of a GOS.
Yes...
please do. We'll be redoing some graphics this winter, I may tap you for some help with them if you're interested.
We've been keeping it spruced up just for you OPOL
Nice of you to drop in.
Love me some NASA pics too. How thoughtful!

You're very kind.
I saw this earlier tonight
on dkos5 and it restored my soul not to mention my mind. Thanks OPOL. Hope you post again here, as I really do not want to look at huge pictures of Ben Carson's crazy ass face in order to wander around looking for a little humanism or cosmicism. I like change it's a good thing but man o man at this point I know a useless bamboozle disguised as a community blog when I see it in giant FP type. Your post both hereand there gave me the hopies in a good way. Beautiful and awesome pics and words. Peace out.
Thanks, shaharazde.
I'm with you on Ben Carson's crazy ass face.
That is so beautiful and healing the heart. Thank You OPOL!
I will remember that the temple has no stones and that the sky is my destiny. I like how your son is one with the waterfall in the universe.
So good to see you here. You do our souls some good.

Thnk you, mimi.
It's wonderful to see you.
Hey OPOL
I saw this at GOS, ( scroll, scroll, scroll,), but I didn't click on it given the shambles that place is in. If you hadn't of posted it here, I would have missed the beautiful pictures and poem. So much beauty in a world filled with so much greed.

great to see you JayRaye!
I'm doing a series of them. I made a bunch of monoprints, the prints were so eye-catching to me--I had to find a way to use them. So, I got some canvases and painted them up and went for mixed media collage.
