A chapter in the book Reflections

A Heavenly Dream

by Jane Jane King

Peacefully floating on white billowing clouds
I suddenly am swept inside the pearly gates of Paradise
Saint Peter the surprised gatekeeper now surprises me
With several boxes of my favorite chocolates.

Heaven-blessed by bursting hugs of bittersweet dark chocolates
Angel-kissed by delicate sprinkles of ambrosial almonds
These sumptuous, melt-in-your-mouth caramels and pralines
Are simply put a heavenly dream

Peacefully floating on my chocolaty heavenly dream-of-last-night
I suddenly am swept inside
The oyster-grey earthly early morning light
My dance-for-joy chocolates disappear out of sight

Suddenly swept back
To my flat chocolateless earthly-life truths
My billowing clouds my dance-for-joy chocolates my heavenly dreams
All go poof

Oh Saint Peter ardent keeper of heaven's gates and heavenly dreamers
Could you angel-express these chocolate pieces of Paradise
To this earthly heaven seeker
Along with angels' wings to raise me to the heavens where all the angels sing
