Glimpses of Heaven

I saw the world through your eyes, its follies, and surprises, I felt the pulse of time with you, And we saw earthly changes. What I can't see with my eyes Visions reach into my dreams, I believe when my heart cries, I won’t stop dreaming dreams. Until I reach heaven’s bright shore I see nothing here of lasting worth, Evil has driven away the pure, Existence becomes greed and mirth. On earth, I am still walking tall, and thinking deep within, of the times, I hear your voice call, for a new journey to begin. Listening to a holy voice pleading From a far distance, We started at once listening, To receive unmerited grace. Only death will take us apart, When breath starts leaving The petals to bloom bright, bereave roses, in the garden. I considered the sky before rain Stars gathering below, clouds flying with the glimpse of heaven, The realms surrounded with a halo. See the beauty of sun and moon, in everything, give thanks, In the light and in the gloom, I glimpse heaven in the distant. God’s presence is the brightest light, of revelation, that I see in your eyes on a clear moonshine night the sky is full of surprise.
