A Heaven Seen From Heaven

For an unpromising believer Heaven as seen from heaven Wouldn't it have fields strewn? With flowers golden, glittering With damsels & dragonflies Starry-eyed, hour upon hour Wouldn't it host rivulets twisting? Turning, stopping in wide-open-bays With cherub angels in joyful mien Happy unclad, combing their hair. But this being of Earth, not heaven With all the wages of sin Multiplied by at least seven Those who are the heirs of Eden Eden's bounty, wealth on earth. Heaven as seen from heaven Would think little more than, Little more than, this is an unclad- Maiden spiralling out in a meadow lush In some remote small part of Devon.
