Is Heaven In The Yellow Pages?

[betts]

Mommy went to Heaven, but I need her here today.

My tummy hurts and I fell down, I need her right away.

Operator can you tell me how to find her in this book?

Is heaven in the yellow part, I don't know where to look.

I think my daddy needs her too, at night I hear him cry.

I hear him call her name sometimes, but I really don't know why.

Maybe if I call her, she will hurry home to me.

Is Heaven very far away, is it across the sea?

She's been gone a long, long time she needs to come home now!

I really need to reach her, but I simply don't know how.

Help me find the number please, is it listed under "Heaven"?

I can't read these big big words, I am only seven.

I'm sorry operator, I didn't mean to make you cry,

Is your tummy hurting too, or is there something in your eye?

If I call my church maybe they will know.

Mommy said when we need help that's where we should go.

I found the number to my church tacked up on the wall.

Thank you operator, I think I'll give 'em a call.
