All is extravagant about heaven
All that have been said or wrote about paradise
Their paradise or Gods paradise is Extravagant
Keep it to yourself for Gods sake
I desire no virgins, no palaces or rich gardens and fine wines
They all bored me and no longer lured me
Your idea of paradise is lack of imagination
Their Idea of paradise is still a prison
My idea of paradise is this:
An island on earth filled with mortal animals
A warm sand near shores of sea
Bamboos and Palm trees and lots of coconuts
Birds singing and air breathing freedom
Freedom from all extravagant things
Then some books and pen and papers
A beautiful old tree must have a shade
Facing the nocturnal and serene view of endless oceans
That is where I should sit and read
That is where I should sing
That is where my art will be my only salvation
Sweet aroma of old book pages
A guitar and old country music with no vocals
That would be my Idea of Happiness
That would be my Idea of Paradise
