Twelve Gates of Heaven

By Cathy   

Beautiful in splendor of Pearl and Gold each gate created in heaven.
Three gates to the North, three to the South, three to the East, and
three gates to the West placed in heaven.
Reuben might & first fruits of strength.
Simeon & Levi weapons of violence are their swords.
Judah is a lion's cub, from the prey, my son you have gone up.
Dan shall judge his people as one of the tribes of Israel.
Naphtali is a doe let loose that bears beautiful fawns.
Gad might men of valor.
Asher shall yield royal delicacies.
Issachar a strong donkey crouching between the sheepfolds.
Zebulun shall dwell at the shore of the sea.
Benjamin means son of the right hand.
Joseph is a fruitful bough by a spring, his branches run over the wall.
