cWonderful poem, dear writer, in many parts of it it reads like a prayer. My favorite lines are the ones that start with "I see Heaven like a...suddenly came to my mind my own words. Maybe I could write my own version...?

This is a sweetly worded Christian poem that I think would be a joy to read to a child every night. It is gentle and uses many biblical images and phrases and is a great way to end the day. Nice rhyme, nice meter.

This is a beautiful presentation, pharp. I like the color scheme and image. Your rhymes are excellent. Your words are filled with imagery of Heaven. I could see everything you wrote in great detail. Your vision is awesome. I believe you covered everything is a super way. This was a joy to read. Thanks for sharing. [the 12 gates . . . each are (is) ]

Virtual six! Sorry to have no six for you, Portia! I'm so happy to read your "glimpse of Heaven!" It is truly based on Scripture. I don't see the contest link in your post so I wonder if you need to ask Tom to link it to the contest.

I especially loved:
"All are on one accord, no more conflicts...
free from preconceptions and politics"

I can feel your faith throughout this piece. You have shown the reader what heaven means to you and we get to see the place of peace through your eyes. Everyone follows one having all else be stripped away.

It is easy to read you have a upbeat flows that leads you from beginning to end.

Well, this poem is from start to finish one glorious testimony of God's heaven. Glory, glory, Haleluya! And the Saints come marching in!
You have beautiful visions of what Heaven is like, and described it lovingly.
Well done!

Portia, very welcome!

Comment from Amanda Louise Davis

Good

There are editing issues with this poem. It should be 'tongues.' There are missing punctuations when you have to have more than one complete thought on a line. It makes it hard to read.
