Let Me Take You To Heaven

Initially wrote it for "Foyle's young poet's competition 2017" but unfortunately didn't win. So sharing it here

Let me take you to a place Where all of the sadness are erased Where there is no discrimination between gender or race Where there isn't any trace of devil, sin, nor is there any disgrace Where angels sing you lullabies Here nobody ever cries And only love and love lies Justice prevails all over it, lion and deer lives in peace Here the birds wake you up with their sweet melodies A place lightened by God Every corners of it are made up of transparent gold The floor is full of marbels and expensive rocks Here the sun shines like emerald cut diamond And translucent glasses are used to make a perfect horizon There are two rivers like tigris and euphraties Between them is a shade covered by a canopy Here all the animal live proudly in vanity And all the trees bear fruit abundantly Here all of your wishes come true You will have whatever you desire And the people who hurt you shall be in a glistening fire Even the water of oceans flow silently here It will rain but there shall never be a storm or fear You will marvel looking at the beauty of this sight Rivers of milk and alcohol flows and there are trees of life Here all are equal, there is no black, no white All walk together in the moon light People reside here forever And beside each one home a river flows A place which is too holy for devil to enter Give the goodnews to poors that it is for only poors and repenters Here the first ray of sun signals the dawn of hope And every imperfection is washed away by glistening rain Sun may shine or there might be a shadow But there will never be any sorrow, tear or pain

Well, it must be Heaven! I don't think there's a place on earth as beautiful as this one. Lovely place, lovely poem.

Such an insightful view for someone so young Faraz. Your writing implies a depth and understanding of life beyond your years. I'm very surprised that this amazing piece didn't place in the contest. It is a beautiful journey into an idealic world.
