BITS OF HEAVEN
I don’t know Whether to hope that it’s true Or whether to hope that it isn’t
But sometimes I feel Especially after being somewhere special
And experiencing an exceptional adventure I feel
Like I’ve experienced A small portion
Of heaven itself
Maybe heaven is ecstasy beyond our imagination Incapable of being experienced in the mortal world Or maybe
Heaven is something more congenial Capable of flowing between dimensions Popping up here and there
And treating and surprising
And basically having fun with the creatures it has created Who knows?
But sometimes my little brain and my beating heart Are tricked into thinking
That briefly
I went to heaven
Conversely Come to think of it
I could say the same thing About hell
