I enjoyed reading Heaven Bound. It's a great entry to the Five Line Contest. I think your photo is perfect to go along with your well-written words. Best wishes in the contest.

A beautiful poem, filled with Divine thought and energy.
The image of two holy hands extended outwards is perfect for the poem.
I love the last line: "God's love welcomes me."

Me too! I believe regardless of when we ask for his help and forgiveness, he is always there with open arms.

Comment from Patty Palmer
Hopefully, a loving family reunion awaits us all when we get to heaven. How great that will be, when we all come together forever and ever. It's the prize at the end of the rainbow. Great job!!

Comment from Father Flaps
Nicely penned, Carol! You have the correct syllable counts for the contest, and I like the imagery in your poem. I see you standing outside the pearly gates, waiting anxiously as they look to see if your name is written down in the Book of Life.
"But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life." Revelation 21:27
I see a lot more waiting us in Heaven than harps and songs of praise. Although, there will be awesome displays of music, I'm sure. Who knows what kinds of jobs await us in Heaven? But we won't be sitting on fluffy clouds.
Good Luck in the contest, my dear!
Hugs,
Kimbob

Yes, we all hope to be on that list and to hear the bells ring, the harp play, and the angels sing, but I hope the time doesn't come for at least another 100 years. :-) Thanks for sharing. (HUG)

Guess who???
Life has been crazy the last few days...but today I sit here at my computer (as long as it will stay connected-ugh!) and try to answer 138 reviews and 32 messages. Not complaining but I am used to maybe fifteen. Thanks for stopping by to read my poem. I am in no hurry either!! Smiles, Carol

Nicely done, Carole. Yes , that is about all we seniors have to look forward too now, but isn't it a wonderful thing. To see all of those loved ones who have gone on before. Good luck in the contest. Nancy:)

A very touching and emotional poem. So many feelings in a few words. Well done! Each time we embrace a memory, we meet again with the person we love. Good luck in the contest!
