Heaven Like Yesterday

I think heaven will be

A little like yesterday

Filled with children

Doing things they've never

Done before

And only there

Because someone else paid

Their smiles reflect a place

Or is it a place that reflects

Their smiles

I am greeted by hugs

and before I can turn

A yell of "Tia!"

With an exclamation point

But the wait to get there

Seems so long

And you have to

Climb through a lot of

Mud and trash to get there

But you keep on

Because there is no other

Way home

Somewhere along the way

You realize it is rather a great adventure

And the best is yet to come

Knowing I was a part of making that happen

Heaven

Is going to be a little like

Yesterday
