Your poem has good rhyme and rhythm. It flows smoothly and describes a scene of tranquility and peace. It isn't quite like my vision of heaven, but it's close.

    Perhaps it's more a description of utopia, or heaven on earth, from my perspective. Thank you Judy, for your kind words - they're much appreciated.

I journeyed on at quite a pace,
'Til I felt rain upon my face.
"What's this?" I thought, "In paradise
I'm sure there is no rain, or ice"
And as the fog began to lift
There came a realization, swift:

Now this stanza is my idea of Paradise.

Well you pretty much described how I picture heaven, right there. It's not full of drifting angels, joyfully playing trumpets while we humans loll about sipping wine and eating grapes, or cake. It's just a place free of hate, envy, lust, greed and all they other things that make us humans turn on each other. I can't wait to get to your version! Well, I can, but I'm certainly looking forward to arriving there when I do fall off the perch! Great entry for the comp, well done and good luck. Regards, Jan

Oh oh oh oh oh... yes.

THIS is truly deserving of my first six.
I was on my way somewhere else... and I found paradise...
Not that divided up labeled up put up segregated up messed up stuck up kind of paradise that I was afraid I was about to find... no.

TRUE paradise.
Well done.
The cadence had me loping along, and it was flawless.
Oh, I have to know who this is... because I know I know this person.
Well done.
bravo...
or shall I say...
brava? :)
