Heavens Eyes

  • In a deep sleep on a cold winters night, I felt my soul float away from my body to go somewhere that was unknown. Such a distance yet so far, but so fast, that I was there within a blink of an eye. I look before me, stand I did, on a cliff looking beyond the ocean blue, a horizon with great grandeaur that no words could explain. I then walked down the path to a land of beautiful colors, greens, yellows, reds, blues, which these colors that I saw, were bright as a rainbow, but warmth at the heart. The birds above me, chirping and making sounds, yet so harmless that nothing there could harm me, not even the serpents on the ground. At the end of the path, I came closer to the seas, white sands as pure as the color of sugar, warmth beneath my feet, yet soft to the touch. I hear the ocean bringing the waves, such music I hear is like a symphony that I have heard in a great theater once before. I began to hear other noises from people I did not know, but as I approach them it was if I had knew them along time ago. People that were there, such friendly faces they were, there was no violence, no care for anything beyond them, except the love of their own. There was no television, there was no phones, no cars to hear the horns from, nothing man made of this world. The people there new nothing of war, or conflict, but only love that we all should know! It was this love that my soul should desire, the memory of war, conflict, and evil gone for ever more. Such a paradise where should I find, such a place is my Heavens Eye. Such comfort my soul had felt, that I did not want to leave back to my own self...yet as I awoke, I felt it was a dream, but in reality, it was my Heavens Eye, in my own dreams.
