The greatest discovery is finding heaven within ourselves! No external force or physical possession can make one rich or happy! We seek Heaven elsewhere, but fail to look inside. Here I am reminded of John Milton's famous lines-'The mind is its own place and in itself, can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of Heaven'.... So glad to note that my poem has inspired you to write this little gem of a poem!

Excellent expression about man's quest for heaven but it is situated beyond the worldly pursuits of the mind. Be careful. Thanks a lot for this small philosophical poem.
