A Glimpse Of The Heaven Poem by Vaibhav Simha

In a blissful strain, I chanted the God's name
To ask him for something but not perishable assets or fame.
In a forest, I sat on a rock shouting my heart out,
For conveying my feelings to the almighty is what I sought.

An angel heard me and said unto the Lord,
‘A devotee is singing his heart out for you in the purest chord.'
The Lord my God raised his hand and the angel descended
To inform me that to heaven I will now be ascended.

In a flash saw I the gardens of heaven standing on the white clouds,
And a gate as high as the sky, guarding the heavenly grounds.
The angel chanted the God's name and ordered the gates to be opened,
The angel shone and the gates obeyed.

But I've not seen the true heaven yet for my Lord still was unreached;
Into his heavenly castle the angel took me and I thanked God for he granted me what I beseeched.
The Lord sat on his mighty throne radiating in his infinite glory
And in moments my heart was lightened from the burden of feeling guilty and sorry.

The Lord rose from his throne and the angel and I knelt,
He came to me and said, ‘In your prayers, true love I felt.
Love shall you be given, and people of your kind I truly prioritize.
I bless your body for when it dies, your soul shall ascend to this paradise! '

My question has been answered for what I really sought
Was a life beyond being mortal and finally with love I got
A place in the paradise, and I am now free from jealousy
For God has read my heart better than I did and took me to ecstasy.
