Living In Heaven Forever and Ever

Living in Heaven Forever and Ever

Would you want things to be neat and nice
Or perhaps perfectly pleasing like paradise
Where great vacation you want to go on
In every morning a splendid new dawn.

Maybe better think about it for a while
Could be belligerent or only beguile
Not a chance my fine feathered friend
This place prefer and want to end up in.

Forget about ma and my messed up cap
Or might want to go to avoid a mishap
Want place to be gold and silver lined
Which is exactly what I had on my mind.

Rather than being razzled and frazzled
I would really prefer to be dazzled
That to me my thought sounded clever
Ended up living in heaver forever and ever.

Hi, James, to be dazzled is good! I liked your poem. I, also, am a Vet. Spent 2 years in the Army as a WAC. Stay strong my fellow poet. ~~Darlene

Well congrats on being 27th out of top 100, James. That is great. Why don't you suggest that free membership for vets! I live on SS and can't afford it. I have only been here about a year so I have no idea where I am on the list. Way low or not at all probably. But I do hope you will read me.
