POEM| A Piece of Heaven

POEM| A Piece of Heaven

I once dreamt
that I was in a garden
with beautiful flowers around me
and a view of a waterfall behind me

A butterfly flew above me
and a burst of colours surrounded me
A beautiful melody filled the air
and the food and drink overwhelmed me

I was alone, but I had no worries
I didn’t long for the people I’ve lost
neither did I miss the people I have
I was happy and at peace
