"The New Jerusalem" Upon the streets of paradise Across the sky, glows a rainbow Someday soon, may it be In continuum of youth's innocent vision Palaces of pure gleaming gold Upon a crystal sea And music of the heavenly spheres, reverberating Like cathedral bells that chime Is heard forever into eternity And they shall come, all that labour and are heavy laden Begotten of God, since the dawn of time To live in God's Kingdom of everlasting peace And there will be no more death, pain or sorrow The gift of the promise, true believers will inherit And the angels sing of the glory As the New Jerusalem, comes down out of God's Heaven Behold, all things are become new, born of spirit Transparently pure, Divine and Holy A river of crystal pure waters, proceeds out of the Throne In the midst of the City, the Tree Of Life Chldren of God, living in supreme joy And love will be the universal dictum And the Lord God will be our Eternal Light And the truth shall reign eternally Upon the streets of paradise In the distance out yonder I can clearly see People sharing and walking in tandem Beyond the specter of the centuries into forever Someday soon, it will be...Amen Next challenge...To he that overcometh will I grant to sit... |

Deep Blue, Honestly, when I wrote this challenge, I had you in mind because, knowing your Wonderful Wonderful gift for writing about Revelation, the Dreamy, the Eternal, and the most Beautiful Beautiful Picturesque ever seen or imagined, I hoped that you would take this topic and run with it and run with it you did... Well... “run” probably isn’t a sufficient term here, but, rather, you scorched my challenge and, in my opinion, you obliterated the running field. Anyway, Great write, Great imagery, Great poem, Great, Great, Great!!! God bless, -Bob |

Thankyou Bob, you are a most beautiful person. Joyed to see that you loved it. In the poem I tried to visualize what will be, nothing though can take place of the actuality of being there. And someday soon, it will be and all the beautiful in spirit will be there. Amen Thankyou Bob And may God bless Josh |
