I Imagine Heaven

I imagine what heaven will be like. I imagine skies so blue, Glistening like diamonds set in the sky. The sun shining so brightly, Offering its warmth to me. I imagine lush green meadows, Whispering to me: “Come, lay down, and rest awhile” The trees, so large and so full of color, Some offering luscious fruits, I can see the flowers with all their hues, Like precious jewels scattered everywhere. Bursting with colors like an artistic canvas. And their fragrance, overwhelms my senses, Fills the air with their heavenly aroma. Oh, I cannot leave out those beautiful animals. They are so gentle, so marvelous. I can lay with them and feed them. I call to them and they come to play. I imagine the waters, Clear as crystals, fresh and sweet. I imagine the streets will be of gold, For my Father only gives the best. What about the people? I imagine Adam and Eve, Noah and Jonah, and so many more, Along with loved ones and dear ones, At my home designed by my Father, Sharing food, fun, love and laughter. Most of all; I imagine my Father and I, Walking together in the garden. His gentle face looks at me, He holds my hand, He gently speaks to me. We sing songs together and laugh together. My family comes to join us. Wow, how very blessed I am. Oh, how I imagine what heaven will be like. He’s at the gate, His angels surround Him, His arms open wide, He tells me, Welcome home my Child.
