Perfect Love

I can't imagine more vivid beauty than that I've seen on Earth,
and when I try to picture Heaven in the somewhere up above
I see flowers and trees, fields, mountains and seas, inherited at birth,
envisioning Heaven as our own Earth, enhanced by perfect love.

Since we've never seen heaven, it makes sense to compare it to some of the most beautiful spots on Earth. Excellent poem, dear Joyce. Congratulations on your win! Love, Carolyn

Wonderful words, Joyce! I see Heaven this way, too, as the most beautiful earth imaginable without the suffering with perfect love. Thanks for sharing this beauty. Blessings, Rhonda
