What is Heaven?
by Alexandra Midnight

Do you enter through pearly gates?

Amongst a sea of clouds

Do you arrive up a steep staircase?

Ascending to the sky

 

Does an angel meet you at the gate?

Waiting for you to come

Do loved ones sit and wait?

Ready to say hello

 

Do you become an angel?

Granted you wings

Does your life start to untangle?

As you leave it all behind

 

Is it up in the sky?

Or higher still

Do you pass it by?

While walking on this land

 

Heaven

Is it only just a dream?

Created by man

To ease death and pain?

 

Or is it out there?

Beyond our eyes

It is even worth a care?

Is heaven really there?

You do provide pause for thought with your questions, Alexandra. Thank you. Love and best wishes,

I think so, but then, I would, lol. I like this, the questioning, the soul's quest for truth and spirit.

You Will Go To Hell Before You Ever Get To Heaven,i.e.Can't Have One Without The Other...

Does Heaven Exist-I Doubt It-Might Be Realm If You Are/Were Good Committed Acts Of Kindness...

Good question. Personally, I believe.

One must believe until the time the gates open for our entrance into a new realm. It is there...

Be always safe,

Well starry eyed, I mean midnight, this poem is very beautiful, it takes you right there, almost like on wings. I had an early life experiences, around seven years old, when I slipped over to that side because of kidney poinoning, I seen what many describe as a tunnel of light pulling you upward, it was an extremely happy experience, only for the ugly row of, I assume, relatives, pointing me back down, but really I did wanted to stay, just cause of this serene exhalted feeling of total bliss, no I did not see angels with wings or such, I just know, I wish still to be there..... if that helps Midnight. Blessings! Jasmin Horst

We have Jesus Christ word that there is a heavenly place that we will gain if we repent of our sins and follow Him and love each other as He loved us. This is a matter of faith and one has the free will to believe it or not. This is an age old question.
