My "Sweet Heaven"

My "Sweet Heaven"
Bodhisattwa Parekh

I wished to rebuild my favourite home,

As a dreamland

Before the Christmas.

But finance was the real headache.

Would my wish remain unfulfilled?





Today's women are very wise.

She advised me to take a festive loan.

From the nearest bank branch.

I applied and was approved.

Mortgaging property deed.





Suddenly I lost my job.

And faced difficulties repaying my loan.

I was in tremendous danger,

Couldn't see any way,

Feeling pains in my heart.





But those dark days were over.

With a mournful incident.

My grandaunt passed away.

But, as per her will,

I got a huge amount of money.

I finished my home

As per my wish.

It was dedicated to her, my grandaunt's, memory.

The new name is "Sweet Heaven".
