Amazing Experience(S) Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Shallowly breathing, thinking beyond life and its sometimes
life-sustaining ways when people are deep in a coma, away
from life as it is known daily.

Many wonder what's going on in their minds; having gone through
dying and being in a coma for four and half days, remembering
everything that happened, telling others what I experienced.

When dying, looking down at my body with curiosity only, no
sadness, then being at a friend's house saying good-bye, noth-
ing more, no memories of life on earth.

Then being in heaven, healed, totally joyful, happy, the peace
was intensely fulfilling, blue ten-dimensional roses everywhere,
beautiful, their aromas beyond anything on earth.

It was like all the sorrow on earth grows these wonderful roses
in heaven; not too long ago in a waiting room at a doctor's
office talking with others something amazing happened.

A woman heard what was being said, 'My God! Blue roses? ' she ex-
claimed; then with tears in her eyes, said her Mom had died two
days before and she was there by her side.

This woman said that suddenly, her Mom cried out excitedly,
'Honey, quick come here! Look at all these beautiful blue
roses! They're everywhere! ' - then her mother died.

This woman wept tears of bittersweet joy at hearing what I had
said, now knowing that her mother was in heaven and she no long-
er had to fear for her.

This experience touched the hearts of all those sitting there
that day, especially this mere poet, because what I'd experience-
ed was verified in an amazing way.
