Picture Perfect

At the bridge where I gather my thoughts,
From days start until night's dark…
I catch myself gazing upon the stars,
Curiously imagining what lays afar...

Dreaming of a place for the good hearted,
A peaceful home for the dearly departed…
Place where we can spend the rest of time,
In a picture perfect world like a nursery rhyme…

Heaven where money has no creed, do or deed,
Somewhere were greed and corruption have no need…
Love is passed round like pennies, nickels and dimes,
Where love is always cherished, no longer a crime…

Smiles that are endless like the roads of gold,
As the clouds graze the surface of this heavenly mold…
Gates made of pure diamond and pearl,
Leading us to a new wondrous world …

Place that would never bring us to harm,
Warmth of the heart and welcome with open arms…
Humble and gracious like the wind,
So perfect I wish this dream would never end…

Curiously imagining what lies afar,
I catch myself gazing into the stars…
From days start until night's dark,
At the bridge where I gather my thoughts…
