THE ROAD TO PARADISE

Read Time:35 Second

www.facebook.com/WRRPoetry [The Road To Paradise]
When we stream to the sanctuary
merely to pray our hearts out
hoping for paradise beyond
heaven bursts in laughter

laugh
laugh
and laugh
at us

For, lo! The road to paradise
is not in heaven
not in anywhere
far apart

Nay! it is there in the heart of man

The hearts of leaders
who themselves are led
by the needs of the led

Of statesmen
who for others live
and for themselves forget to live

The hearts of good deeds
that from evil retreat
like asses, from lion flee
