A Glimpse of Heaven

Author's Note: Hello all! Sorry for such a long hiatus; my life has been crazy! I'm finally a monthly writer! YAY! Congrats to Homeschoolgirl and Kassady for becoming monthlies too! This poem is dedicated to you both for my waaaay too long break from writing and your constant support of me here on AP! God Bless! - Wings of Eternity

A whisper of a breath,
My eyes beheld the gaze,
Eternity unbroken,
Unceasing songs of praise.

Infinity in a glance,
Enraptured in the call,
Arms outstretched in welcome,
Wingbeats break my fall.

Soothing light envelops,
Surrender makes me free,
Cradled in the notion,
I’m where I’m meant to be.

A harmony I hear,
My voice joins in the song,
I cannot fathom leaving,
This place where I belong.

My sight was finally opened,
My life was not the same,
Unbridled power echoed,
A call not for the tame.

My sleeping soul awakened,
Wrapped in love’s embrace,
Peace now fills my heart,
In this journey I must face.

But I know at journey’s end,
My spirit will take flight,
Into the arms of Jesus,
Within this place of light.
