Had I not believed in Heaven, I simply must now; <br />You may be lead to query: 'This may be, yet how? ' <br />Whensoever I may have occasion, to gaze in to your eyes, <br />I can see Heaven, I have no means to feign, nor disguise! <br /> <br />I yearn to see this Heaven, every solitary night; <br />I long to be humbly within your gracious sight! <br />If only my heart had words, oh, what it would recite- <br />A sweet song of my elation, my soul's delight! <br /> <br />Mine whole life, I have awaited to be in your embrace; <br />I stand now in inspired awe, at your amazing grace! <br /> <br />My jollity knows not bound, nor cease, I would submit! <br />Your love hath more power than word could admit! <br /> <br />But for now, this Heaven only exists when I dream, <br />Then I awaken to my reality, though real it did seem! <br /> <br />Maurice Harris,21 April 2010<br /><br />Maurice Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/this-heaven/
