I often wonder how,
the first moments,
in heaven feel.
Do the deceased,
deeply anticipate,
a soulful meeting,
with their loved ones,
that they had once
lost on Earth?

When people are,
at the verge of death,
and just a few seconds away,
from their final farewell,
Do they ardently hope,
to descend into heaven?
Is it the memories of their lifetime,
that they hold within,
the depths of their hearts,
as tokens of selfless love.

Heaven to my eyes,
is a land so surreal.
A place where two souls intertwine,
in the name of a much awaited union.

Where devastated mothers,
that once lost their beloved children,
smile brighter than the stars,
upon realizing they're not so far.

Where parents that long for their child,
finally get to reunite.
Where dogs wag their tails,
over the blissful sight,
of their empathetic owners,
whom they saw as family.

Where a little girl runs to receive,
a warm hug from her grandma,...
