Where Is Heaven?

We peer at space with curious eyes
And Hubble telescope, that flies.
Oservatories everywhere
Are trained to watch the vast "out there".

I wonder just where Heaven lies?
Could it be somewhere in the skies
Beyond man's limits to observe,
Or hidden in a rainbow's curve?

God has ordained that we not see
Where we will spend eternity!
Perhaps its glory is too great
For living eyes to contemplate!

This poem brings forth question which we have no answers, but in such a way to make a reader wonder.

Good work.

Lexia:  Thanks for your response.  It's a question I often wonder about and of course, I know there is no answer in this lifetime.  Hope you are enjoying the site!

If ever we were at a loss for words of how to express our question about what we don't know about God...well we just found them in this write, or I know I just did. Thanks for helping me put it to words.

I'm trying to get back to my reading but things keep happening.  They have just discovered a new Universe and it crossed my mind.  Perhaps that's where Heaven lies.  Joyce

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Betty, though I too am so curious about this most pure and enchanting abode, I too believe He just wants to suprise us with its infinite beauty as a reward to those who commit good to one another and righteousness! (sigh) This is a most beautiful pondering, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Betty, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Noah:  I think you are right about this! It will be a surprise when we reach Heaven, far beyond our imaginings, I'm sure. Thanks.
