Have you ever seen a gold field so bright?
Hills undulating, blowing seas of green
Clouds, like sheep, streak across the sky in fright
Crawling across the floor creep bugs unseen


Sun dance moon in a game never ending
Nightingale sings its sweetest sudden song
Flowers look towards the sun, stems are bending
Two lovers have been in a field all along


Up get they in the cycle eternal
Death happy they after living so sad
Parents, thought they, their love is so infernal
In robes of beautiful gold, they are clad


But ‘tis a despairing death mark-ed dream
For curtains close this fair scene it would seem

I was inspired by the beauty of things and thought about what it was like in heaven. It was my image of what it was like, but I will not know till I get there so I shouldn't give my hopes up.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
