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.

Asteroid

They say that there’s a
Chance that some day
A huge asteroid may
Hit the earth and cause
A lot of damage. Many
People will die as the
Result. This means we
Need to hold on to the
Ones we love, and live
Each day to the fullest.

Car of Idiots

Every once in a while you
See them out on the streets.
The car is packed full of
People with goofball looks.
They hang their legs out of
The car windows and cruise
Around and around singing
Off-key songs to blaring
Music. It’s been said they
May have come from
Another planet–of Goofs.

Let’s Ride

Americans are always ready
To get on the highway and
Take a road trip. Going to
A different place every
Summer is something
Families always look
Forward to. Hook up a
Travel trailer and camp
Out in a new place every
Evening. These are
Vacation times to
Remember.

Wake Up!

Here we are on this planet

To live and look around

The corner at what might

Jump out at us. This is the

Adventure we live for.

We are the most awake

When we welcome it all.

Together in Heaven

We’re together here on earth
But we don’t know how many
Days any of us have left. The
Idea is to spend our time in
Harmony and doing things
Together. But the hammer
Falls: God takes both of us.
We are finally together in
Heaven.

Dependence

Even though there are
Separate objects and
Separate people in
The world, the idea
Of separateness is
An illusion. Every
Thing and everybody
Is connected in a web
Of mutual relatedness
That leaves nobody
Out in the cold. And
The world is an
Interdependent cosmic
Machine.

Flash in the Sky

It’s not often that a bright
Enough light in the sky in
The daytime catches your
Attention. But this one did.
It was like someone took a
Picture of the earth using
A flash camera that lit up
The world. Nobody knows
Where it came from or who
Did it. We can only hope
They like us.

Soul

A person enters a forest
To lose his mind and find
His inner self. After all,
We came from the forest
And our soul came from
The stars.
