"Heaven's Location"

Heaven is under our feet as well as over our heads.
Henry David Thoreau
Earth's crammed with heaven...But only he who sees,
takes off his shoes.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning

There are two heavens; the one in ‘the book’,

Then there is the one you can access now.
This is all around you and underfoot,
In your mind and in your heart; let joy grow.

Confusing me, ‘the book’ says there are three,
Which can be reached only after we die.
Living like heaven is now; filled with glee,
I think He will say, ‘To Heaven now fly’.

‘The Book’ has commandments above all others;
Love ME with all your strength and heart and mind.
And your brethren with love shall be smothered.
Do this all your life; to you, He’ll be kind.
