Hello Poet.
This is exceptional with the quatrains and mixture of rhyme and slant rhyme. Great flow and highly original. Creative is the word. Though I'm in no hurry to cross over yet, I do believe that families will be reunited and we'll have animals. I believe it will be all we have here, but without the troubles. No need to hurry though. lol.
Fondly, Rebecca

Wow! You sure put your head to work to include everything that you enjoy on planet earth; and so you are not ready to leave just yet. No one has returned to tell us what heaven is like, the Bible says it is paved with streets of gold and the gates are made of pearls and precious stones. We have two choices within one body; one enjoys planet earth and the other travels the astral plane and has coffee with God. Excellent poem. I can give you six stars!

Jimi,

We can all wonder about Heaven, and one story I'd recommend to you is Mark Twain's "Captain Stormfield's Visit to Heaven."

I enjoyed this poem and couldn't find anything to criticize.

You present quite and argument in your well written poem. Unfortunately, I don't think God's us an option when He calls. This is very well written.

Many congratulations on your poem is very good and makes us think of the gift and to live in a paradise with mountains, waterfalls, and wonders that only nature could create. It is a positive reflection, it is extraordinary what we share, is one of the best poems I've read on the site.
regards

You used very pretty scenery in this unmetered poem, Jimi. You're right that earth has much beauty. Be careful with your rhyming. There are several pairs that don't really rhyme, such as Heaven/decision, wind/descend, and carousels/sail. But I like the picturesque scenes and enjoyed reading your poem.
