Read Time:40 Second
At the Pearly gates,
I shuddered!
The music that assailed me
Was a perfect blend
Unknown to most Clerics!
One ear captured Hallelujah
The other, Allahu Akbar!
A perfect blend of love
…Symphony beyond words!
Symptomatic of a sad truth.
Alas, my being
Became the rendezvous
For Joy and Melancholy!
How wrong they are…!
Yet, they bask in the euphoria
Of their heart-rending ignorance
And ignore that perfect blend!
My desire for an entry (into Paradise) retreated…
Then, was I catapulted
Back into my cloak…
This body I needed, once again
To herald the message…
That perfect all-time symphony;
Love only is your ticket
To Paradise!
