A Visit To Heaven

It was a trip I was looking forward to
A visit to heaven
I saw the inscription on the gates
Abandon all suffering ye who enter here
The streets were made of gold
Everyone was a billionaire
Everyone shared their wealth
Everyone was happy and healthy
The best foods were available
Lobster, filet mignon, king crab, and thousands of others
You could go fishing and catch your limit in half an hour
You could go golfing and expect at least one hole in one
You can travel anywhere in the universe in an instant
The cars had the best music on voice command
The houses were all mansions with pools in the basement
The prettiest butterflies could be see on the most beautiful flowers
The waters were so clear and clean you could drink right out of them
All questions had answers
There was only truth and love
The angel took my hand and told me
You are going there some day
Till that day comes
You must try to create as close to heaven on earth as you can
Then the angel guided me back to earth
And I woke up still clutching the bag of candy she had given me

About this poem:
Just got the book Dante's Inferno. I was trying to create my own verison of heaven. I also mixed in a dream I had as a child when I got adopted.

candykid, thanks for your comment on my poem. I have been watching The Price is Right with Bob Barker. He would agree with you about no killing of animals in heaven. I do feel sorry for the lobsters at Red Lobster because they have their claws rubber banded shut and are boiled alive. I don't order them that way for another reason, the process of eating a boiled lobster is pretty messy and gross.doh burger popcorn good luck

lindsyjones, thanks for your comment. I did read your poem, thanks for including my name, and thanks for the compliment. I don't have any Irish in my makeup, my grandparents came over in a boat in 1907 from Austria Hungary and were of German descent, but it's fun to pretend to be Irish for a couple more days!heart wings angel2 good luck irish
