Heaven on Earth

Last morning as I woke up to sunrise
saw a dazzling light to my own surprise
Always knew that I was God's special kid
But this time it came stronger than it ever did
a realization that I have been so very "BLESSED"

Blessed with a family, I feel proud to call mine
to share my joys & woes, a gift divine
Blessed with warmth & care, when times were low
showered with encouragement, for the highs I grow

I had my share of light & dark
I had my share of rise & fall
and enjoyed every moment as I was growing tall
Oh yes, I had them all

Can never wish to have been someone else
Or wish to have lived another way
Can never wish to be reborn again
what I have now is HEAVEN in every way!


Last afternoon as I was passing through my day
sensed an untouched feeling coming my way
Always knew that I was God's special child
But this time it came stronger, much more than mild
a realization that I have been so well "TREASURED"

Treasured by teachers who went on to guide
giving me sense to make out wrong from right
Treasured by elders & mentors, people I admire
gave me knowledge to know myself, kindled the fire

I had my share of shallows & depths
I had my share of black & white
learning each day, trying my best not to fall
Oh yes, I had them all

Can never wish to have been someone else
Or wish to have lived another way
Can never wish to be reborn again
what I have now is HEAVEN in every way!


Last evening as I was walking alone
heard a whispered voice I can call my own
Always knew that I was God's special kid
But this time it came stronger than it ever did
a realization that I have been so much "ADORED"

Adored by strangers who went on to be friends
to be dear to them, near enough to make amends
Adored by buddies nonetheless was I weak or strong
to celebrate the rights, to crib for the wrongs

I had my share of good & bad
I had my share of old & new
some memorable times, painted like pictures on the wall
Oh yes, I had them all

Can never wish to have been someone else
Or wish to have lived another way
Can never wish to be reborn again
what I have now is HEAVEN in every way!



Last night as I was lying on my bed
felt a sudden random thought crossing my head
Always knew that I was God's special child
But this time it came stronger, much more than mild
a realization that I have been so truly "LOVED"

Loved by some dear ones, making me beautiful inside
in ways so sweet & deep, felt so happy that I cried
Loved to be freed, to be touched to the core
lending me a chance to spread my wings and explore

I had my share of triumphs & defeats
I had my share of trues & blues
some moments to cherish, moments to recall
Oh yes, I had them all

Can never wish to have been someone else
Or wish to have lived another way
Can never wish to be reborn again
what I have now is HEAVEN in every way!



Cheers!
