Above The Atmosphere Poem by Ernestine Northover
Above The Atmosphere
If I could climb a ladder to the stars.
Forget my fear of heights and upward glance.
To see the heavens twinkling down on me,
Making me feel that I could freely dance.
If I could spread my arms and touch the stars,
And shake their glitter down upon the earth.
Giving such hope and joy to all below,
Lifting up the pure essence of their worth.
If I could, in my hands, cradle some stars,
And feel the warmth that they would surely own.
The universe would all around me be,
And I would feel a peace I’ve never known.
If I could wish upon those sparkling stars.
Way, way up high above the atmosphere.
I’d ask that our sad world would fill with love,
Sent down to us from God who’s always near.
A beautiful creation of fine imagery and clarity of imagination. I really enjoyed this mystical and dream like journey of hope A Lovely poem. Best Steve

Your words are full of hope and peace. If only i can hug you for real..you will see my eyes streaming with tears and the heart beat that says..ah..here is my real friend forever. If i can talk to Jesus, i will say beautiful things about you. Love you so much, my dearest friend, Meggie
