In Heaven

''God brought us together'',
he told her.

''He opened our hearts 
so that we could accept each other's love
even though
all the odds were against us''.

She closes her eyes.
Remembers the feeling of divine trust
she felt
the first time she set eyes of him 
on their first meeting.
Or her thrill of excitement 
the first time he talked to her.
Or their first time together
her total openness
and sense of belonging.
Belonging to him.


Yes, baby,
God  brought us together.
Because such a union
is surely only made in heaven...
