Keys To Paradise: A Heartbeat Away Poem by Terence George Craddock

strange
how
enduring

time
age
strips

away
a dross
of worries

fears
tragedies
hard times;

until
we
realize

love
harmony
peace

compassion
gifts
from

the heart;

are the keys
to paradise
yet we need

no keys
the gates
stand open;

waiting
for us
to hop

skip
walk
through

with
love
peace

radiant
permeating
our souls
