Little Heaven On Earth

fourth in the series of “tell me your song and i’ll write you a poem”

Little Heaven On Earth

it used to be just a dream,
a dream of me finding someone to love
love as told by many, love like no else,
love that will make me see sunshine in the mornings, butterflies in the garden and a love that will make me see
God as a jolly bearded old man

then you came along
my world, oh, my world dear
has turned out to be more beautiful than ever
the birds are chirpier
the grass is greener
the rainbow is brighter
and the church bells ringing joyously
as if its Christmas everyday

it used to be just a dream
our dream of spending the days
and the nights together
and of sealing our love,
our blissful love by virtue of
one true blessed holy matrimony
and from that day on forward
we promised to love each other
in sickness and in health
for richer and for poorer
as death may not even take our love away


I swear my love, I love you more each day
it feels like a little heaven on earth
with you beside me,
each and every waking hours of my life
“and throughout the night,
I wanna hold you tight
I wanna wake up with you”


and I thank God, I thank God
for you, for the many nights with you
and the many waking mornings with you
‘cos my love, waking up with you beside me
feels like a little heaven on earth


our love is dawning, always, just as we wake up together each morning
