Closer to Heaven

Heaven can be on earth when
The strong helps the weak, a
Favor is done for someone
Without expecting payment.
The more good that is done
Around the world, the closer
Heaven surrounds us.

Mom

Mom’s been around for
A long time. At 98 years
Young, she’s sharp as a
Tack, soft spoken. And
Mom is a little hard of
Hearing. Her love for
Her family and in-laws
Is real and returned
Back to Mom. It’s easy
To make her laugh.
And her gentle nature
Wins everyone over.
We want Mom to last
Forever.
