Heaven Poem by Roxy Gonro

No one has time to wait for anyting anymore,
but yet everyone waits til they're dead to find heaven.
So why not search for it here on earth?
Find the little pieces of heaven that are here with us now.
If we could take just a minute to pause, put everything on hold.
If we just pull the car over and step out to run through a field of sunflowers, on top of a hill and take a deep breathe of fresh air.
Hear the birds chirpping, see them soar through the sky with all the freedom in the world.
Watch the sun set over the city below our feet.
Maybe go to the ocean and dip your feet in the water, just stand there as the tide goes up and down the shore, while our toes sink into the sand. Look up at the moon in the great big sky. Watch as the waves reflect the sparkling stars.
Look out over the water that seems to go on for miles and miles and never end.
If we did this, We'd see that we have little bits of heaven right in front of us.
If we just take a minute to feel it, we'll find it.
Heavens here with us now.
