Surprise in Heaven


I Dreamt death came, the other night
And heaven's gate swung wide,
An angel with halo bright
Ushered me inside.

And there to my astonishment,
Stood folks I'd judged and labelled
As "quite unfit", "of little worth"
And "spiritually disabled."

Indignant words rose to my lips,
But never were set free
For every face showed stunned surprise -
Not one expected ME!
