Heaven

Precious gem stones awaiting my throne 
my real home away from home 
the promised land 
much better than a 40 acres and a mule 
where the most high rules 
walking on roads of pawn shop dreams 
the after life 
not in hell filled with destruction,evil ,and strife
Better than any mansion,car ,and any amount of money 
a land filled with milk and honey 
Angel wings, such lovely things 
flying around not hearing the sound of immorality
but of harps ,great orchestras of great melody
incredibly bright 
never lit by moon light 
by of His glory 
that's the place I hope to be when my destiny is complete

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
