HEAVEN ON EARTH

Have you ever experienced Heaven on Earth, I imagine everyone has

It could be a walk on the beach, a beautiful sunset, or perhaps a little jazz.

 

The point is Heaven on Earth is individual, it’s different for you and me

I guess that’s so we have many chances to experience it’s symmetry.

 

If we’re lucky we feel it many times in many different ways

As a way to complement our nights and to intensify our days.

 

I can’t speak for the rest of you but Heaven on Earth is simple for me

I feel it many times, like when I’m surrounded by family.

 

Bryan flew in yesterday with his friend Jonathan

And they were joined by the rest of our family before the day was done.

 

We cooked out, lit a campfire, it was a great way to start the week

We sat around and talked and laughed as the grandkids played hide and seek.

 

In the midst of all the food, the laughter and the mirth

I stood under the moonlit night and thought, this is Heaven On Earth.

 

I have been blessed with many such moments in my life, from the moment of my birth

Moments that when I stop to think about seem just like Heaven on Earth.

 

And I have to wonder am I blessed to have these special moments in the life I have partook?

 

Or, is the blessing I have received in knowing where to look?
