Life
Peace
Satisfaction
Self-acceptance
An end to criticism
And all recrimination
A glimpse of reality
A kingdom of colour and joy
Music and humour that uplifts
The kind of compassion that unlocks lives
Hatred, frustration, anger and backbiting bagged up
And lost in a boundless ocean of grace
No more tears
No more sadness
No more pain or loss
A world of wide-eyed wonder
Innocence regained
Laughter unbridled
Lost worlds rediscovered
Narnian truth through the wardrobe of a cross
The hope of heaven in the footprints on earth.
