An Aqua Reverie

The great mystery of the House of God
Within the aqua reverie of a facade 

A choice He gives to us- of evil or good
All we ever do is divinely understood.

An apparition of Heaven held in a hand
Given by the Creator, for us to understand.

Glimpses of euphoria and merriment we envision 
Heaven- the reward bestowed for the right decision

The great mystery of the House of God
Be worthy in this life; and at the Gate you'll get a nod.

There are but a few things He demands
You, alone, carry the power in your hands.



Honorable Mention in the "The Power in Your Hands" contest by 
Carolyn Devonshire.
