Heavens Gate

Heavens Gate

By Paul Mc Cann

Through an open gate
I chanced to pass by with you .
Slipping to the floor
I fell to the hands of fate.
There I felt at ease for a while
as time passed through .
The warmth of your smile
melted any trace of hate .
Rainbow hues ushered in bright light
out of the blue.
A moment empty of words .
What can I relate ?
Reflecting now as I look
history has past .
Things may come and go
but we all live within love .
I embrace each second
where once I first came last.
Both the hunter and the prey
escaped with the dove.

where all things are within our grasp .
