Heaven is so different a place
you don't need to undress
into different hues, each day
you are whole
into pieces, you don't break
no offices to go to,
no deadlines to freak,
on a precipice, you don't lie
no marmalade to make
no glazed donuts for the weekend
no tiffin to pack,
no puking sinks to clean
The table is laid before you wake
a cocktail of recipes
no ache, nothing at stake
for Heaven sake
Neither does anyone ring the bell
And disturb your sleep
everyone is asleep
in the lap of eternity
a little dot of peace
you are as important as all
a part of whole
No frocks, no frills, no corset,
still, you look beautiful in the eyes of your Thee
the sky is yours, the moon right beside you
no star plucking for anyone
no fake promise ever to make
no guilt, no fear
you JUST BE
beyond the definition of anyone
and that makes all the difference
No bullying, no sneering, no body shaming
beyond definition, you just exist
you are not judged by the stew you burnt last night
A real home
Away from fuss and stress
everything calm and pristine
a buss on your cheek from Heaven
once you are finally home
