Sonnet: The Road to Heaven is Quite Easy for the Righteous!

The righteous souls have God as friend and guide;
He clears the hurdles coming on their way;
There is no fear for them with God beside;
Much skillfully, He holds devils at bay.

Faith drives the upright souls towards Heaven;
Their eyes discern the dangers lurking them;
They do their duty in time God-given;
God will reward them with His diadem.

God helps them reach their destination right;
There is no turning back when God directs;
God is the beckoning force and divine light;
Man’s earthly whims and fancies, God rejects.

Their road to Heaven isn’t so difficult;
The grace of God becomes their catapult!
