At Seven Life Is Heaven
At seven life is heaven
with no sorrows or woe.
Reality is playtime by lad-winged Cupid's bow.
At seven life is heaven
with no dreads or regret.
Puff-clouds are transportation by magical carpet.
At seven life is heaven
with no traffic or trade.
Fun money is spendable by penny-wise charade.
At seven life is heaven
with no distrust or doubt.
Angels are divine strangers by unrestricted clout.
At seven life is heaven
with no worries or stress.
Sandcastles are domiciles by opulent address.
At seven life is heaven
with no demise or death.
Tomorrow is eternal by everlasting breath.
