The journey to heaven.

                                           Image Source

There is a path

that leads to heaven,

with lovely red tulips

so tall and proud,

all lined up

in their finest grandeur.

Blooming full

in graceful style

the tulips yield

their mighty splendor.

Where angels sing

and trumpets blow

to consume thee

with sweet delight.

A glorious stream

shines high from above,

to beckon thee

with profound– insight.
