Flows of water clean the
Detrius from my soul
Weight of mistakes and
Thoughtless days are drowned
Into a new world I am bound
Where this world is, I do not know
Revealed to me, to everyone someday
Each one upon arrival, to judge oneself
Have I made the "grade", I set
Before I entered world below?
If not, shall I go back and
Begin again the "show"?
Or forgiving myself for the lapses,
Travel to a new earth, I go
Lessons old; lessons new, I realize
I will need to learn
Now once again, physical entity,
On stage I go!

I do believe that we return again and again to live to learn and to understand. Why and for what reason, we may never understand. Your piece has opened a few doors for me to explore and gives questions that seek answers. If indeed the soul has once again entered onto the stage to play out this new being, then will this soul retain that memory and continue to grow with the knowledge, or will that knowledge be hidden. A delightful piece once again that challenges belief.

This is a very thought provoking poem. I do not believe in reincarnation but I do believe in a paradise on earth. I really enjoyed the read!!!

Very good, as you say, the world is a stage and the only person we need understanding from is ourselves
