Heaven if seen from heaven <br />would have fields strewn with gold <br />flowers would be glittering damsel <br />dragonflies, stars, hour upon hour. <br /> <br />Where rivulets mingle into bays <br />angels would comb, golden manes <br />clothes unclad wash their men <br />and be forever eternally glad. <br /> <br />But this being earth not heaven <br />wages of sin are multiplied by seven. <br />Heaven if seen from heaven <br />would be little more than...? <br /> <br />An out sprawlng maiden, <br />coupling on a meadow bed in Devon.<br /><br />Mark Heathcote<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/heaven-if-seen-from-heaven/
