The Realm of Heaven and Earth

When I open up my heart this is what I hear
The sound of heavens'angels
Ascending and descending
With choruses of Halelujahs
Around the Throne of God

The sound of prayers in beautiful notes
As magnificent unearthly tunes
From all over the earth
Rises to the heavens

The sound of many waterfalls
The voice of God
And all the lovely sounds
Of heavens'creatures,the birds,
And the joyous throng of loved ones there

And then I realize I am on this place
Called earth
Called to be a woman to convey
All that God and heaven means to me!

Author notes

If one has ears to hear the sounds of heaven and earth this is what one will hear plus the sound of the stars,singing as written in scripture...Unheard on this earth but to a few....this is my wish"

    its good

    its a good poem, but ry to keep religion out of poetry for the sake of avoiding arguments.
    two things no-one should talk about are religion and politics cuz every1 has different views.

    this is such a magnificent piece. it truly reveals your feelings about God and heaven. the imagery that you use to convey your thoughts, that we are here for a reason and that earth is sort of a waiting room for heaven. can't wait to go home!
    Very amazing!!

    Beautiful

    This is a beautiful poem. For me it ended too soon. I felt like you had more in you to say. Even without more words this is a beautiful write. I think anyone who's a christian dreams about someday being in heaven. Yeah, we all have to realize that we are put on this earth for a purpose and that heaven will be here soon, because the rapture is on its way. So lets get right church and lets go home. Simply Beautiful.

    Lovely poetry

    In all of my days of living no matter the cituation I have been able to see the beauty of the wonders of this earth . It really makes me upset to see the way people trash this earth and treat it as though they dont care. The indian people were the ones who was taught respect for this land . They didnt change it they didnt trash it and never took more than they needed to live . Look at it now for it brings tears to my eyes to know and see their was only one race the indians that truly deserved the land . For they saw and heard the spirites about them and never took it for granted . Now our throw away generation nothing is made to last and so many only see the almighty dollar and ignores the direction they are comeing to for without proper care of anything it will crumble

    So true

    Written with such love . We as women do see and feel the beauty about us everyday and on what we see we share with as many as we can . For we are the key to mankind on this earth for without us the human race would surly die . And in time maybe man will realize we were not put on this earth only for maid service and bareing children we keep this world in order as much as they have let us . For there is not one job in this world that doesnt have women doing half the work yet still not recognized as being equal. I dont mean we should have the mens jobs no I mean if we are so stupid as some men see us why are we asked all the questions

    my first impression is your an angel. I liked the opening lines, " When I open up my heart this is what I hear
    The sound of heavens'angels
    Ascending and descending". that gave me the imagery of a different view and it works with the ending too. good write sweetie.

    You have captured my heart with this poem causing me to smile. Your ability to publicly pronounce your faith and your realization that it is a relationship with God and not religion shows me the depth of your character. This piece of art is well done with its fluidity and image merged to melt into my mind. You have such a beautiful way of expressing yourself and allowing me to see into your spirit.

    I think you do well
    to bring yourself this close to God

    My closest moments
    are in my dreams where I see his word unfolded


    I offer my prayers that he may listen as he chooses
    I am helpless on this earth except as he calls me.

    This is well said in verse by you

    'the sound of many waterfalls' nicely done, although im not one for thrones, the beautiful vibes radiate from this whatever the language, as you inspire the mind set of prayer elegantly describing the ladders passage especially with waterfall as this puts the quenching tone of the emptyness surrounding us and convenning with our spirit.... as so for nobles truths of energetic proportions i thank you for an elegant write.

    This is beautiful! It is intensely spiritual and sings to the spirit. I too open my heart when in meditation and hear the heavenlies. What a wondrous sound it is indeed. I know that the Lord is saying; "well done my good and faithful servant". What an inspirational work this is. It simply makes me sigh.

    Thank you ever so much for this inspirational entry you've submitted into my contest. I wish you all the very best.
