Alexis Y. Poet Villanelle

A Beautiful Place

Last night I woke up in the most beautiful place,
All the cares of the world didn't exist at all;
Folk loved each other, no such thing as race. 

Joy and happiness was present on each face,
Because everyone answered to love’s call;
Last night I woke up in the most beautiful place.

Darkness, hate, and evil vanished without a trace,
Unity finally reigned; we stood proud and tall;
Folk loved each other, no such thing as race.

We partook of God’s love and amazing grace,
Our hearts were linked we were ready to play ball;
Last night I woke up in the most beautiful place.


Love, peace, joy took root in that time and space,
Prejudices couldn't break through love’s wall.
Folk loved each other, no such thing as race,
Last night I woke up in the most beautiful place.

Judy Ball May 26, 2021 at 10:05 AM Sounds very much like you went into the near future when Jesus returns to the earth to set everything back the way it's supposed to be. Can't wait for that to happen. Come Lord Jesus and save us all from ourselves. Great write my friend. God Bless, JB
